State, in your own words, the main idea for this topic
  A '''System''' is a part of the universe that we choose to study. The '''Surroundings''' are everything else that ''surrounds'' the '''System'''.


===A Mathematical Model===

What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic.  For example <math>{\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net}</math> where '''p''' is the momentum of the system and '''F''' is the net force from the surroundings.
