• This is important for a system approach This is important for a system approach to solving a problemto solving a problem
• If the work is done on a system and it is If the work is done on a system and it is positive, energy is transferred to the positive, energy is transferred to the systemsystem
• If the work done on the system is If the work done on the system is negative, energy is transferred from the negative, energy is transferred from the systemsystem
