Equilibrium

What is thermal equilibrium and how is it meet??

The temperature doesn't change as long as conditions remain unchanged in the beaker that the fluid is in. Thermal equilibrium is the basis for measuring temperature with thermometers. Thermal equilibriums rock awesomely. Thermal equilibriums apply to physics regarding energy usage.

It is when two objects are the same teperature. It il like when you put a glass of water in the fridge and the temperature of water reaches the temp of the fridge. It is used in a physics.

Thermal equilibrium is the relationship between two isolated systems the states of which are such that no net transfer of energy would occur between them if they were connected by a diathermic wall. It is used for measuring temperature. It is met when you get to a certain temperature and remain at the temperature unless changing circumstances.

The temp wont change unless if the conditions dont change. The temp will change if the conditions change. It is used for measuring temp with thermometers.

Thermal equilibrium is when the temperature and pressure remains the same in the beaker if the energy remains the same. This is useful for thermometers. Thermal equilibriums are used in physics all the time.
