It is appropriate to call attention to certain thermodynamic properties of an ideal gas that are analogous to rubber-like deformation.
The internal energy of an ideal gas depends on temperature only and is independent of pressure or volume.
In other words, if an ideal gas is compressed and kept at constant temperature, the work done in compressing it is completely converted into heat and transferred to the surrounding heat sink.
This means that work equals Q which in turn equals Af.
