Real Gas Behavior | The Hard Shell Model [Example #2]

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the work done by a gas expanding isothermally using the hard sphere model. It involves setting up and solving an integral, using substitution methods, and evaluating the result. The tutorial concludes with the final calculation of work done, emphasizing the importance of understanding the sign of the work in relation to energy changes in the system.
