Question 1

What is the main distinction between a system and a control volume?

A system includes boundary conditions.
A system is a fixed mass
while a control volume captures flow changes.
A control volume is fixed while a system varies.

💡 Hint: Focus on the fixed versus changing nature of analysis.

Question 2

True or false: State relationships do not affect flow analysis in control volumes.

True
False

💡 Hint: Consider the role of pressure and temperature in behavior.
