First Law of Thermodynamics
Short Description of Topic
The Main Idea
The First law of Thermodynamics states that energy can be neither created nor destroyed. It is also known as the conservation of energy. Even if the energy cannot be created or destroyed, power generation process and energy sources help the conversion of the energy from one form to an another.
A Mathematical Model
