Work and Heat Conversion

Assertion (A): Work and heat both can be converted into each other in any condition.
Reason (R): Work and Heat both are different form of energy.
 
(1) Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)
(2) Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)
(3) (A) is true but (R) is false
(4) Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Concept: First Law of Thermodynamics and nature of work/heat. Work and heat are forms of energy transfer, not different forms of energy itself. Their interconversion is governed by thermodynamic laws and not possible under 'any condition'. Both (A) and (R) are false.
