ACSPH022
Two systems in contact transfer energy between particles so that eventually the systems reach the same temperature; that is, they are in thermal equilibrium
ACSPH022 | Content Descriptions | Unit 1 | Physics | Science | Senior secondary curriculum
ACSPH131
The special theory of relativity is based on two postulates: that the speed of light in a vacuum is an absolute constant, and that all inertial reference frames are equivalent
