positive, then W is positive, meaning that work is done by the gas on the outside
world.
To explain the phenomenon of the expansion of a gas in the piston when
heated the following assumptions are used:
a. An expanding gas can move the piston
b. The piston moves with a velocity u is smaller than the velocity of the
molecule and the gas is maintained in an equilibrium state
c. From a thermodynamic point of view, this process is reversible, namely the
process can return to its initial state
d. When a molecule collides perfectly elastic with a wall, the magnitude of the
normal component of velocity does not change.

From the Figure 2, u is the velocity of the piston. The value of the piston
velocity is smaller than the velocity of the molecule. The symbol v is the velocity
of molecule before colliding the wall, is the angle of molecule velocity v to the
normal line, v1 is velocity of molecule after colliding the wall, and 1 is the angle
of molecule velocity v1 to the normal line.

Molecule moves away from wall and wall also move away from molecule. The
normal component of molecular velocity after colliding a piston wall is

Because the piston wall moves upward causing loss of kinetic energy in the
collision. The difference in kinetic energy is the same as the lost of the kinetic in

The number of molecules per unit area and per unit time with the speed between
v and v + dv and the direction between and + d is equal to the number of
collisions between molecules and wall.

The loss of kinetic energy from a gas from collision between a number of
molecules with a wall is work which done by a gas to move the piston. In other
words, the loss of kinetic energy loss of a gas in the collision is converted into a
work by a gas to move the piston. Therefore, the collision theory between
molecules and moving wall can explain the interesting phenomenon in
thermodynamics that is a gas is heated in a cylinder can move a piston.
