work. Thermodynamics is the study of energy. The field of thermodynamics studies the behavior of energy flow in natural systems. These studies have rendered two laws of thermodynamics. The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the law of conservation of energy. This law suggests that energy can be transferred from one system to another in many forms. Also‚ it cannot be created or destroyed‚ (Encyclopedia Britannica‚ 2012). Ultimately‚ the total amount of energy available is a constant. Einstein’s
