Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the Joule to not change his experiment to get the ratio of heat capacity of surrounding to system equals to 0.001 in order to increase the sensitivity of the apparatus needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

If the system experiences change from one thermodynamic phase to another due to change in properties such as temperature, volume, pressure, etc., the system is said to be undergoing thermodynamic process.
