Describe a process in which the internal energy of some system increases as a result of work done on the system by its surroundings. Be sure to identify all objects included in your system.
Suppouse an isolated piston-cylinder system which has a gas at a state one and then a weight is added to the piston in order to compress the gas and taking it to a state 2.
In this case the gas will be our system and the work done by it's sorroundings is that due to the weight added on top of the piston. So using the first law of thermodynamics:
Where Q=0 because the system is isolated and no heat changes occur with the surroundings.
The work caused by the added weight can be written as: and assuming constant pressure
work will be so
If volume 1 is bigger than volume 2 the change of internal energy is positive so the internal energy increases as a result of work done on the system by its surroundings.

Which of the following statements is correct? The internal energy of a system increases when more work is done by the system than heat was flowing into the system. The internal energy of a system decreases when work is done on the system and heat is flowing into the system. The system does work on the surroundings when an ideal gas expands against a constant external pressure. All statements are true. All statements are false.
