Small revisions to final exam

I have made three small revisions to the final.

1. Changed misspelled "processes" to "process" in Problem 2.
2. Included an expanded description of what I mean by the reversible work function in Problem 3c.
3. I have specified that the fluid considered in Problem 4 is isotropic.

Please don't forget to fill out the online course evaluation.

PS 8, Canceled

It seems that my attempt to squeeze one last problem set in before the final has inadvertently led to a violation in MIT policies surrounding finals week. As a result I am revoking PS 8 from you. To those of you who have already been working on it, I apologize for the inconvenience.
