Unit 1 Lesson 3
How can we easily represent the main components of the system?
Each object in the system should have it's own labeled box
What can we do to show how energy transfers between them?
We can draw an arrow from the object transferring energy to the object that receives the energy
We can use "dots" to represent the amount of energy transferred
What can we use to bound the whole system?
We can draw a dotted line around the objects inside of the system
Objects outside of the system, or the "surroundings," remain outside of the dotted line
