If a system is isolated the total energy within that system is constant. Consider the case of a hot cup of coffee: when it cools

down, the energy goes into the surrounding air, causing the air to warm. If the coffee and the air are placed in an isolated chamber, the total energy of the system (coffee + air) is constant because the energy lost by the coffee is exactly equal to the energy gained by the air. The only way for the total energy of a system to change is when it is not isolated, meaning that external forces or sources of energy interact with the system. If we want to define a system where the total energy is conserved, which one of the choices below would be the best system to consider?A. The personB. The person and the EarthC. The Earth

Answer:b-The person and the earth

Explanation:

The best system will be the person and earth as a system

It is so because whatever the energy required by the person is derived from earth resource and thus by depleting the earth resource person is getting is required form of energy .

for example person want thermal energy , for this he need coal which is earth resource and thus all the energy is derived from earth and is being converted into some other form of energy.

Answer: the correct answer is (B) He did not know that interstellar dust made it hard from him to see a large part of the Milky Way's disk.

Explanation:

We live in a dusty Galaxy. Because interstellar dust absorbs the light from stars, Herschel could see only those stars within about 6000 light-years of the Sun.
