Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A closed loop system continuously pumps water in and out but loses some volume due to leaks. How does mass conservation apply in this scenario?
💡 Hint: Think about how inflow balances outflow and leaks.
Consider a turbine generating energy from flowing water. If the water’s speed increases, what happens to the energy your system is producing? Discuss this in the context of energy conservation.
💡 Hint: Recall how energy changes form as it moves through systems.
