In a closed system, the rest of the energy not used for work or heat is typically converted into other forms of energy, such as sound, light, or stored as potential energy.
When energy is transferred from one form to another, it does not disappear but is converted into a different form of energy. For example, in a light bulb, electrical energy is converted into light and heat energy. Thus, the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant but changes its form.
Yes, according to the second law of thermodynamics, entropy tends to increase in a closed system. In a cold system, if the temperature is below the surroundings, the heat can flow from the surroundings to the system, increasing the system's entropy.
Materials or energy that go into a system are considered inputs. These inputs are necessary for the system to function and produce the desired output. Inputs can include raw materials, labor, fuel, electricity, etc.
A merry-go-round is a mechanical energy system because it involves the conversion of potential energy stored in the riders moving up and down into kinetic energy as they rotate around the center axis. This energy conversion allows the merry-go-round to continuously spin as long as there is input force applied to keep it moving.
Input energy is when. . .say. . .you eat fruits or vegetables, and you get energy from them. You BRING IN energy or get energy. Output energy in when. . .say. . .you go run a mile or 2, and you use energy. You are PUTTING OUT energy.
An open system allows for exchanges of matter and energy with its environment, while a closed system does not allow for exchange of matter but may allow exchange of energy. In an open system, there is a constant flow of input and output, whereas in a closed system, the total amount of matter remains constant.
It does not. Look up the definition. Alot of time when we build a "closed system" is not really a closed system. Close, but not all of the way there. That is why you have make-up water on mechanical closed loops and why you add water to your radiator.
Systems are classified according to the exchange of matter and energy with its surroundings; thus, the Earth system is open, but approximately closed. The Earth does exchange energy and it exchanges matter in the form of meteorites, comets, and cosmic rays, as satellites, hydrogen (H), and helium go out.

A closed system maintains itself on a limited amount of resources that are entrenched in that particular system. Energy can be exchanged with other systems, but not any actual matter. Therefore, some of what goes on in the environment is considered a closed system, but not a whole lot. Open systems are much more common. In an open system, necessary resources are renewed and exchanged on a regular basis. Many ecosystems, for example, rely on the sun to constantly import energy into their basic cycles. Then there's a limited amount of nutrients to go around -- such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous -- and they're constantly cycled around. Some common cycles include the hydrological cycle, rock cycle and the carbon cycle. http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/difference-closed-open-system

An island food web could be considered a closed system because it has limited resources and energy inputs from outside sources. The energy and nutrients within the system cycle among the organisms on the island without much influence from outside factors, leading to a more self-contained ecosystem. This closed system characteristic can make island ecosystems more vulnerable to disruptions.
Grasshoppers have an open circulatory system, and worms have a closed circulatory system. There you go. :)
The energy is conserved by the " law of conservation of energy" . It states that energy can be neither created nor be destroyed. Then a question may arise that if there is no change in the amount of energy, then why do people often say that energy should be conserved ...... energy is wasting....... we must prevent it? Energy is a finite resource. The materials we derive energy from (oil, coal, electricty, ect.) can also harm the environment. By conserving energy you help to save parts of the environment. There are many ways to conserve energy. The most obvious is to not waste it. This can easily be done by shurring off lights when you leave a room, or turning off the computer or TV when it is not being directly used. Some other ways would be to recyle (it takes more energy to produce new cans, for example, than to re-use recycled ones) or re-use bottles or bags so that energy doesn't need to go into making new ones and the others aren't wasted.
The Birmingham canals are linked to the canal system of the rest of England.
There wouldn't be any cost, it's been closed since 2005 so you aren't allowed to go in there! Anyways rest in peace Michael!
it only uses energy to go up at the start and the rest is just gravity doing all the work
