<Li> Mechanics: branch of physics in which we study about the object and properties of an object in form of motion under the action of force . </Li> <P> The first chapter of The Feynman Lectures on Physics is about the existence of atoms, which Feynman considered to be the most compact statement of physics, from which science could easily result even if all other knowledge was lost . By modeling matter as collections of hard spheres, it is possible to describe the kinetic theory of gases, upon which classical thermodynamics is based . </P> <P> Thermodynamics studies the effects of changes in temperature, pressure, and volume on physical systems on the macroscopic scale, and the transfer of energy as heat . Historically, thermodynamics developed out of the desire to increase the efficiency of early steam engines . </P> <P> The starting point for most thermodynamic considerations is the laws of thermodynamics, which postulate that energy can be exchanged between physical systems as heat or work . They also postulate the existence of a quantity named entropy, which can be defined for any system . In thermodynamics, interactions between large ensembles of objects are studied and categorized . Central to this are the concepts of system and surroundings . A system is composed of particles, whose average motions define its properties, which in turn are related to one another through equations of state . Properties can be combined to express internal energy and thermodynamic potentials, which are useful for determining conditions for equilibrium and spontaneous processes . </P>
