Sentence examples for an isolated system from inspiring English sources

In an isolated system (such as the universe), there are no external forces, so momentum is always conserved.

The chance of finding an observable decrease in entropy for an isolated system can be ruled out.

The total angular momentum (also called moment of momentum) of an isolated system about a fixed point is conserved as well.

Until 1956 it was assumed that, when an isolated system of fundamental particles interacts, the overall parity remains the same or is conserved.

The first law of thermodynamics is the energy conservation principle of mechanics (i.e., for all changes in an isolated system, the energy remains constant) generalized to include heat.

When applied to the universe as a whole, considered as an isolated system, this ultimate chaotic condition has been called the "heat death".

For example, the block of ice and the stove constitute two parts of an isolated system for which total entropy increases as the ice melts.
