—> Work done : energy transferred, measured in Joules (J)
—> to move the rod, gas is used to move a piston.
—> the energy transferred to the piston by the gas is known as ‘work done’
—> is equal to the force times distance moved in the direction of the force
—> if the position of the piston is defined as ‘x’ then the distance moved by the piston is
—> and so the work done by the gas is
