An eigenvalue problem takes the form:
Find all the values of $\lambda$ for which the equation
$$A\pmb{x} = \lambda \pmb{x}$$
has a nonzero solution $\pmb x$, where $A$ is an $n\times n$ matrix and
$\pmb x$ is a column vector.
The equation may be written as
\begin{align*}
A\pmb x &= \lambda I \pmb x \\
\Leftrightarrow A \pmb x - \lambda I \pmb x & = 0 \\
\Leftrightarrow (A-\lambda I)\pmb x &= 0
\end{align*}
($\Leftrightarrow$ means "if and only if")
Non-zero solutions will exist if
$\det(A-\lambda I) = 0$
There are infinitely many eigenvectors for a given eigenvalue.
This is because if $\pmb x$ is an eigenvector of $A$ corresponding to the
eigenvalue $\lambda$ and $c$ is a non-zero scalar, then $c\pmb x$ is also
an eigenvector of $A$:
$$A(c\pmb x) = cA\pmb x = c\lambda \pmb x = \lambda(c\pmb x)$$
In general, if $A$ is an $n\times n$ matrix, then $|A-\lambda I|$ is a
polynomial of degree $n$ in $\lambda$, called the characteristic polynomial.
The characteristic equation is:
$$\lambda^n + c_{n-1}\lambda^{n-1} + c_{n-2}\lambda^{n-2} + \cdots + c_0 = 0$$

#### Example 1 ($2\times2$ example)
</summary>
If $A$ is the matrix
$$A = \begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix}$$
then
$$|A - \lambda I| = \lambda^2 - (a+d)\lambda + (ad-bc)$$
And the standard method for solving a quadratic can be used to find $\lambda$.

$$a_c = r\omega^2$$
$$a = r\alpha \hat{e}_\theta - r\omega^2\hat{e}_r$$
## Moment of Inertia
$$J = mr^2 = \frac{M}{\ddot\theta}$$
The unit of $J$ is kgm$^2$.
Consider a particle of mass $m$ attached to one end of a rigid rod of length $r$.
The rod is pivoting at its other end about point $O$, and experiences a torque $M$.
This torque will cause the mass and the rod to rotate about $O$ with angular velocity
$\dot{\theta}$ an angular acceleration $\ddot{\theta}$.

What is the expression for $M$?
Well if break down the moment $M$ into a force, $F$, acting on the mass, we know that the
moment $M = Fr$.
We know $F = ma$, and this case $a = r\ddot{\theta}$ so $M = mr^2\ddot\theta$.
The moment of inertia is $J = mr^2$ so $M = J\ddot\theta$.
If multiple torques are applied to a body the *rotational equation* of the motion is
$$\overrightarrow{M} = \sum_i \overrightarrow{M}_i = J \overrightarrow{\ddot\theta} = J \overrightarrow{\alpha}$$
The moment of inertia of any object is found by considering the object to be made up of lots of
small particles and adding the moments of inertia for each small particle.
The moments of inertia for a body depends on the mass and its distribution about the axis in
consideration.
$$J = \sum_i m_ir^2_i \rightarrow \int\! r^2 \mathrm{d}m$$
### Perpendicular Axis Rule
The perpendicular axis rule states that, for lamina object:
$$J_z = J_x + J_y$$
where $J_x$, $J_y$, and $J_z$ are the moments of inertia along their respective axes.
### Parallel Axes Rule (Huygens-Steiner Theorem)
The parallel axes rule states that:
$$J_A = J_G = md^2$$
where $d$ is the perpendicular distance between the two axes.

### Moment of a Compound Object
The moment of inertia for any compound object can be calculated by adding and subtracting the
moments of inertia for its 'standard' components.

This proves that the isentropic version of the process adiabatic (no heat is transferred across the
boundary).
# 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
The 2nd Law recognises that processes happen in a certain direction.
It was discovered through the study of heat engines (ones that produce mechanical work from heat).
> Heat does not spontaneously flow from a cooler to a hotter body.
~ Clausius' Statement on the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
> It is impossible to construct a heat engine that will operate in a cycle and take heat from a
> reservoir and produce an equivalent amount of work.
~ Kelvin-Planck Statement of 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
## Heat Engines
A heat engine must have:
- Thermal energy reservoir --- a large body of heat that does not change in temperature
- Heat source --- a reservoir that supplies heat to the engine
- Heat sink --- a reservoir that absorbs heat rejected from a heat engine (this is usually
surrounding environment)

#### Steam Power Plant
![](./images/vimscrot-2022-03-22T09:19:07,697440371+00:00.png)
## Thermal Efficiency
For heat engines, $Q_{out} > 0$ so $W_{out} < Q_{in}$ as $W_{out} = Q_{in} - Q_{out}$
$$\eta = \frac{W_{out}}{Q_{in}} = 1 - \frac{Q_{out}}{Q_{in}}$$
Early steam engines had efficiency around 10% but large diesel engines nowadays have efficiencies
up to around 50%, with petrol engines around 30%.
The most efficient heat engines we have are large gas-steam power plants, at around 60%.
## Carnot Efficiency
The maximum efficiency for a heat engine that operates reversibly between the heat source and heat
sink is known as the *Carnot Efficiency*:
$$\eta_{carnot} = 1 - \frac{T_2}{T_1}$$
where $T$ is in Kelvin (or any unit of absolute temperature, I suppose)
Therefore to maximise potential efficiency, you want to maximise input heat temperature, and
minimise output heat temperature.
The efficiency of any heat engine will be less than $\eta_{carnot}$ if it operates between more than
two reservoirs.
## Reversible and Irreversible Processes
### Reversible Processes
A reversible process operate at thermal and physical equilibrium.
There is no degradation in the quality of energy.
There must be no mechanical friction, fluid friction, or electrical resistance.
Heat transfers must be across a very small temperature difference.
All expansions must be controlled.
### Irreversible Processes
In irreversible processes, the quality of the energy degrades.
For example, mechanical energy degrades into heat by friction and heat energy degrades into lower
quality heat (a lower temperature), including by mixing of fluids.
Thermal resistance at both hot sources and cold sinks are an irreversibility and reduce efficiency.
There may also be uncontrolled expansions or sudden changes in pressure.
# Energy Quality
## Quantifying Disorder (Entropy)
$$S = k\log_eW$$
where $S$ is entropy, $k = 1.38\times10^{-23}$ J/K is Boltzmann's constant, and $W$ is the number of
ways of reorganising energy.s
