The latter had demon- strated that the work of a steam engine is depend- ing on the temperature difference, thus the work was not equivalent [...] responsi- ble for establishing his work, but also William Thomson, who later became Lord Kelvin. Yet, Joule himself did not start from scratch and par- ticularly referred to the work of Benjamin Thomp- son, Count

make sure that the work was going efficient and that the quality of the weapons was as expected. When Thompson stood in the workshop, he immediately felt anger raise as most of the work- men stood around [...] for a tool to be prepared were not his idea of efficiency. Thus, he demanded that the workers should work with a blunt drill whilst the other one was still sharpened. Yet, they refused by arguing that the [...] Thomp-son felt that this issue deserves some more of his attention, so he mumbled to the workers ‘Work on, and be more efficient’ and went back to his carriage to go home, thinking about this problem.

that is conserved, and thus there is a direct ratio between the mechanical work and the heat that can be produced by the work. Joule started to talk, and while he was talking he felt more and more that [...] had raised his attention to a certain aspect of a well-known principle: The conversion of mechanical work or electricity into heat. Even though this convertibility was established, what puzzled Joule was [...] was a newly appointed professor of physics in Glasgow, he had studied in Cambridge and afterwards worked with the French Victor Regnault, the leading experimentalist in the sciences of heat.

………………………………………………………………………………… Activity 4 The formula W=m.g.h is used for the calculation of the work produced through the fall of a body with a mass of m. The mass is measured in kg, where g expresses [...] the constant height from which bodies fall measured in m. We will use it in order to calculate the work produced during the fall of the weights of the device.
