Image Physical systems.gif thumb right 175px Physical System example In physics , the word system has a technical meaning, namely, it is the portion of the physical universe chosen for analysis. Everything outside the system is known as the environment systems environment , which in analysis is ignored except for its effects on the system. The cut between system and the world is a free choice, generally made to simplify the analysis as much as possible. An isolated system is one which has negligible interaction with its environment. Often a system in this sense is chosen to correspond to the more usual meaning of system , such as a particular machine. But physical systems are often more esoteric an atom, the water in a lake, or indeed the water in the left hand half of a lake can all be considered as physical systems. In the study of quantum decoherence the system may refer to the macroscopic properties of an object e.g. the position of a pendulum bob , while the relevant environment may be the internal degrees of freedom physics and chemistry degrees of freedom , described classically by the pendulum s thermal vibrations.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Physical change is a concept introduced to contrast with the concept of chemical change . A physical change is any change not involving a change in the substance s chemical identity. Matter undergoes chemical change when the composition of the substances changes one or more substances combine or break up as in a relationship to form new substances. Physical changes occur when objects undergo a change that does not change their chemical nature. A physical change involves a change in physical properties. Physical properties can be observed without changing the composition of matter. Examples of physical properties include texture, shape, size, color, volume, mass, weight, and density. An example of a physical change occurs when making a baseball bat. Wood is carefully crafted into a shape which will allow a batter to best apply force on the ball. Even though the wood has changed shape and therefore physical properties, the chemical nature of the wood has not been altered. The bat and the original piece of wood are still the same chemical substance. Changes are sometimes hard to categorize strictly as physical or as chemical. Dissolving a salt in water involves the breaking of chemical bonds, yet is often described as a physical change. Some teachers hold that a chemical change is a rearrangement of atoms, but many physical changes also involve the rearrangement of atoms. Many chemical changes are irreversible, and many physical changes are reversible, but reversibility is not a certain criterion for classification. Although chemical changes are often recognized by an indication such as odor, color change, production of a precipitate, or production of a gas, every one of these indicators can result from physical change.
