Extractions: KELVIN, Lord (William Thomson, 1824-1907). Físico británico que realizó contribuciones decisivas en la termodinámica, estableciendo una escala de temperaturas, " escala Kelvin " basada en el segundo principio y, por tanto, independiente de las propiedades de cualquier sustancia particular. La unidad internacional de temperatura se llama kelvin en su honor. Fue el inventor de más de 50 instrumentos o máquinas científicas. Por sus trabajos en la instalación del primer cable transatlántico fue nombrado Sir y más tarde Lord Kelvin. Denunció constantemente el "absurdo, ridículo y nefasto sistema inglés de pesas y medidas", siendo gran partidario del sistema métrico.

Extractions: William Thomson 's father, James Thomson, had originally intended to become a minister of the Presbyterian Church but had opted for an academic career as a mathematician. William's mother died when he was six years old and from that time he was brought up by his father. James Thomson was the professor of engineering in Belfast at the time of William's birth and, when William was eight years old, his father James was appointed to the chair of mathematics at the University of Glasgow. James Thomson was a dominant father who brought his family up in a strict Presbyterian fashion. William's sister wrote of this childhood [3]:- Our father read to us regularly every Sunday morning some chapters in the Old Testament, and in the evening some in the New. However, despite his father being very strict he had a very close relationship with William. It was from his father that William learn mathematics and at a very young age he became an accomplished mathematician with knowledge of the latest developments in the subject.

Extractions: Scottish mathematician and physicist who contributed to many branches of physics. He was known for his self-confidence, and as an undergraduate at Cambridge he thought himself the sure "Senior Wrangler" (the name given to the student who scored highest on the Cambridge mathematical Tripos exam). After taking the exam he asked his servant, "Oh, just run down to the Senate House, will you, and see who is Second Wrangler." The servant returned and informed him, " You, sir!" (Campbell and Higgens, p. 98, 1984). Another example of his hubris is provided by his 1895 statement "heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible" (Australian Institute of Physics), followed by his 1896 statement, "I have not the smallest molecule of faith in aerial navigation other than ballooning...I would not care to be a member of the Aeronautical Society." Kelvin is also known for an address to an assemblage of physicists at the British Association for the advancement of Science in 1900 in which he stated, "There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now. All that remains is more and more precise measurement." A similar statement is attributed to the American physicist Albert Michelson Kelvin argued that the key issue in the interpretation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics was the explanation of irreversible processes. He noted that if entropy always increased, the universe would eventually reach a state of uniform temperature and maximum entropy from which it would not be possible to extract any work. He called this the Heat Death of the Universe. With

Extractions: William Thomson wurde am 26. Juni 1824 in Belfast geboren. Nach dem Tode seiner Mutter 1830 übernahm Thomsons Vater, ein Mathematikprofessor seine Grundausbildung. Als dieser 1832 einen Ruf nach Glasgow erhielt immatrikulierte er seinen 11jährigen Sohn an der dortigen Universität. Thomson bewältigte das Mathematikstudium erfolgreich und machte sich insbesondere mit den Arbeiten von Laplace und mit Fouriers Werk über die Wärmeleitung bekannt. Im Jahr 1841 kam er nach Cambridge und studierte dort Naturwissenschaft. Nach einem einjährigem Aufenthalt 1845 in Paris erhielt er 1846 einen Ruf als Professor für theoretische Physik an die Universität Glasgow. Er experimentierte 1847 mit seinem Freund George Stokes im Bereich der Hydrodynamik. 1848 veröffentlichte Thomson die erste größere Arbeit auf dem Gebiet der Thermodynamik, in der er auf der Grundlage der Carnotschen Wärmetheorie eine absolute Skala für die Temperatur vorschlug. Die absolute Temperatur wird noch heute in Kelvin angegeben. Im Jahre 1851 wurde er in die Royal Society aufgenommen. 1853 fand er mit James Prescott Joule , dass die Temperatur eines Gases bei einer Ausdehnung gegen einen Widerstand ohne äußere Arbeitsleistung sinkt.

V ìdecké práce týkající se mnohých oblastí fyziky (termodynamika, hydrodynamika, elektromagnetizmus, pevnost, teplota atd.), matematiky a techniky. V roce 1851 vyslovil druhé pravidlo termodynamiky: "v pøírodì není moný proces, jeho jediným výsledkem by byla mechanická práce vykonaná na úèet ochlazení tepelného zdroje". V souladu s druhým zákonem termodynamiky byla dokázána nemonost existence druhého tipu vìèného pohybu. Thomson hodnì vyuíval termodynamických metod pro vysvìtlení rozlièných fyzikálních jevù. Roku 1848 zavedl vysvìtlení absolutní teploty a absolutní stupnice teploty, nazvanou jeho jménem (stupnice Kelvinova). R oku 1856 rozpracoval 3. termodynamický zákon (Thomsonùv efekt)

Extractions: Domovská stránka Fyzici William Thomson (pozdìji lord Kelvin) se narodil 26. èervna 1824 v Belfastu v Irsku v rodinì uèitele matematiky. Pozdìji se jeho otec stal profesorem matematiky na univerzitì v Glasgow. Na tuto univerzitu dal také svého tehdy desetiletého syna zapsat! V 16 letech pak Kelvin pøeel na Cambridge a ve 22 letech se stal v Glasgow profesorem. William Thomson se nejvíce vìnoval elektøinì a magnetismu. V oboru termodynamiky Thomson spolupracoval s J. P. Joulem . W. Thomson je povaován za dovritele mechaniky ve fyzice. Thomson vynalezl mnoho pøístrojù umoòujících telegrafii (zrcátkový galvanomìr a samoèinný zapisovaè telegrafických signálù). Thomsonùv elektromìr (Kelvinovy váhy) se skládají z rovinného kondenzátoru, tvoøeného dvìma kruhovými elektrodami, ze kterých je jedna pevná a izolovaná, druhá je mírnì pohyblivá, vodivì zavìená na ramenì citlivých vah. Síla mezi elektrodami nabitého kondenzátoru se mìøí postupným pøidáváním závaí. Tìsnì po pøekroèení rovnováhy se pohyblivá elektroda pohne a pøeruí se obvod signální árovky.

Extractions: Lord Kelvin's Machine Another Dave Langford review. It's steampunk again, another slightly zany Scientific Romance set in a Victorian age owing more to Dickens, Stevenson and, at a pinch, Chesterton than any mere history. Stevenson supplies the epigraph and a minor character, the erstwhile Prince Florizel of Bohemia ( New Arabian Nights The Dynamiter ) whose part is so small that he's scarcely worth mentioning except as a further reminder that practically the whole gang from Blaylock's earlier Homunculus is here. Eminent scientist Langdon St Ives, his eminent rivals (including of course Lord Kelvin himself), his eminently hissable hunchback enemy Dr Ignacio Narbondo, plus a variety of allies, henchmen and interlopers: Binger, Hasbro, Keeble, Kraken, Mrs Langley, Parsons, Pule, Owlesby.... Homunculus was a novel that kept stacking up new excesses as its crowd of Sternean eccentrics tripped over one another in a prolonged and quite remarkably daft chase through London's mean streets and pea-soupers, after a variety of often inter-confusible McGuffins. The finale wrapped things up with a surreal image (the long-sought and long-offstage Homunculus piloting the aeronaut Birdlip's skeletal body towards the stars) which delivered satisfaction without actually resolving anything. Never apologize, never explain. Lord Kelvin's Machine takes place on a slightly different level of unreality, with `alternate science' replacing the allusions to magic and alchemy. Here Maxwell's Equations are sixteen in number and form a unified field theory that includes gravity. Here Earth can be made to swerve in its orbit by simultaneously detonating an entire chain of volcanoes, the trigger devices including a Rawls-Hibbing Mechanical Bladder and the rhythmic tread of a marching army.
