Joule's Laws (Briefly Explained)

Introduction

Joule's law and joule's effects was discovered by a Physicist James Prescott Joule.The following are the laws which was discovered by Physicist James Prescott Joule:

·         Joule's First Law

      This law is a physical law which expresses the relationship between the heat generated and current flowing through a conductor.

·         Joule's Second Law 

      It states that the internal energy of an ideal gas is independent of its volume and pressure, depending only on its temperature.

·         Magneto-Striction 

      A property of ferromagnetic materials that causes them to change their shape when subjected to a magnetic field.

·         The Joule–Thomson Effect 

      The temperature change of a gas (usually cooling) when it is allowed to expand freely.

·         The Gough–Joule Effect 

       It is the tendency of elastomers to contract if heated while they are under tension.

Joule's First Law

In between 1840 and 1843 Joule was studying about the heat which produces by an electric current in any conductor and from this study he made his first law which is called the joule's law of heating and it is also called joule's effect. From this law James Prescott Joule told the world that when the current passes through a conductor, the current effects on the conductor and the conductors starts heating and by this analysis energy converts into its different forms.

Magneto-Striction

In 1842 James Prescott Joule made his new effect which is called magneto-striction effect. This effect describes that this is a property of material named ferromagnetic that changes its shape and dimension during the process of magnetization. The variation of materials is because of applied magnetic field which changes their strain and saturation value.

The Joule–Thomson Effect


The joules expansion is the process of irreversible in thermodynamics in which a volume of a gas is kept on one side of an isolated container when gas is shifted on the other side of container then the gas is filled on the whole container
