When you pump a bicycle tyre, the pump becomes warm, and nobody heated it. In this course we define the internal energy of a gas, we separate heat from work, and we find the work as the area under a pressure-volume graph. Then we write the first law of thermodynamics, which is the law of conservation of energy for heat and work.
