A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Basic principles of thermodynamics

The basic principles of thermodynamics introduce the laws that govern energy, heat, and work in physical systems. Mastering these laws—especially the first and second laws—enables students to analyse energy balances, predict spontaneous processes, and evaluate the efficiency of thermal machines, all of which are core to the Nigerian tertiary exam.
