Kaplan says that when work is done on a closed system, the internal energy does not change and the work done results in the production of heat. Is this always the case?
I'm confused because I know that there are instances where work is done on a system, resulting in an increase in internal energy rather than in heat.
Can someone explain?
Thanks!
