Verbatim question for GR8677 #66
Thermodynamics}First Law

Recall that dQ=TdS=PdV+dU, where work done by the system is positive and heat input into the system is positive. For constant volume, the equation becomes dQ=TdS=dU.

\Rightarrow T=\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial S}\right)_V. The reciprocol gives the right answer.

\frac{1}{T}=\left( \frac{\delta U}{\delta S} \right) _V instead of \frac{1}{T}= \left( \frac{\delta S}{\delta U} \right) _V 		NEC
