Introduction:
The study of energy and its conversion to one form into another (transformation) is called thermodynamics. The term thermodynamics correlates between heat, work, energy, and temperature. There are three laws in thermodynamics: the first law of thermodynamics (law of conservation of energy), the second law of thermodynamics, and the third law of thermodynamics.
