Problem 2.1. Classify the following thermodynamic systems in the five categories defined in Section 2.1: a. A solid bar of copper. b. A glass of ice water. 30 Thermodynamics in Materials Science c. A yttrium stabilized zirconia furnace tube. d. A Styrofoam coffee cup. e. A eutectic alloy turbine blade rotating at 20,000 r/min. You may find it necessary to qualify your answer hy defining the system more precisely: state your assumptions. Problem 2.2. It is not an overstatement to say that without state functions thermodynamics would be useless. Discuss this assertion.
