In laymens terms, heat is the movement of molecules. Absolute zero is the absence of any movement of molecules, and thats why you can't go below it.
By the way, what's wrong with Googling for the answer?
The precise definition of heat is "the process of energy transfer from one object to another because of the difference in temperature between the two objects". It is not the same as "temperature" or "heat/thermal energy".
Also, that's 0 degrees kelvin which starts at 0 movement.Quote from: Yukwunhang on July 21, 2009, 03:49:13 amThe precise definition of heat is "the process of energy transfer from one object to another because of the difference in temperature between the two objects".

Wow.. particles don't stop existing when they reach absolute zero.

Best Admin: jrgp, he's like the forum mom and a pet dog rolled into one.
Seriously? Volume directly proportional to temp.? Source?A 10 cubic feet cube of ice at -10C will not become a 1 cubic foot cube of ice at -100C.Matter would NOT disappear at 0k (or at any temp. for that matter) because of something called "law of conservation of mass/matter".
What about heat? Does it have a limit? Can the motion of particles ever reach a top speed and does it have one at all? -serious question, I don't know that.
As for the upper limit of temperature, I don't know the exact limit but in any case there will be one since nothing can move faster than the speed of light according to Einstein.
Last year, I dreamt I was pissing at a restroom, but I missed the urinal and my penis exploded.
In any case I'm curious to know, what is the temperature of God?
Well if you look at it using the equation (Pressure1*Volume1)/Temp.1 = (Pressure2*Volume2)/Temp2...State1:Pressure: 100,000 PascalsVolume: 5m^3Temp: 100KelvinsIf we change to state 2 while keeping the pressure constant...State2:Pressure: 100,000 PascalsVolume: (?) m^3Temp: 0 KelvinsWe get 100,000*5/100 = 100,000*x/0 <-oh dear... ...the resulting volume would be undefined because it is being divided by zero, right? Interesting
Theoretically, at absolute zero the volume of an ideal gas would be zero and all molecular motion would cease. In actuality, all gases condense to solids or liquids well above this point. Although absolute zero cannot be reached, temperatures within a few billionths of a degree above absolute zero have been achieved in the laboratory. At such low temperatures, gases assume nontraditional states, the Bose-Einstein and fermionic condensates
A Bose-Einstein condensate, the fifth state of matter, is formed at low temperatures when a significant number of the elementary particles classified as bosons collapse into the same quantum state. A similar condensate that consists of fermions instead of bosons is known as a fermionic condensate, the sixth state of matter.
