Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
In science and engineering, a system is the part of the universe that is being studied, while the environment is the remainder of the universe that lies outside the boundaries of the system. It is also known as the surroundings or neighborhood, and in thermodynamics, as the reservoir. Depending on the type of system, it may interact with the environment by exchanging mass, energy (including heat and work), linear momentum, angular momentum, electric charge, or other conserved properties. In some disciplines, such as information theory, information may also be exchanged. The environment is ignored in analysis of the system, except in regard to these interactions.
The environment is external to the system we want to control. However, we can think of the environment as defining the exogenous variables to the system under consideration. They influence the performance of the system and we seek to attenuate the effect of external disturbances via feedback.
