Because this chapter is focused on the applications of integrals it is assumed in all the examples that you are capable of doing the integrals. There will not be as much detail in the integration process in the examples in this chapter as there was in the examples in the previous chapter.
freezing point. noun. Abbr. fp. The temperature at which a liquid of specified composition solidifies under a fixed pressure, usually standard pressure. The temperature at any fixed pressure at which the liquid and solid phases of a substance of specified composition are in equilibrium.
Boiling is endothermic (it takes energy to boil water), and so the water cools off as it boils. Eventually, whatâs left will freeze. You can also freeze water by putting dry ice or liquid nitrogen into it. The dry ice will vaporize and the liquid nitrogen will boil, both indicating that they are receiving thermal energy given up by the freezing water.
