• The Laws of Thermodynamics: Where Temperature, Internal Energy and Entropy Come FromEmpirical temperature is built from the transitivity of thermal equilibrium, internal energy and heat from the path independence of adiabatic work, and entropy from the equivalence of the Thomson and Clausius principles, Carnot's theorem and the Clausius inequality.PhysicsThermodynamics and Statistical MechanicsUndergraduateThermodynamicsEntropySecond lawCarnot cycleAbsolute temperature~30 min
