Okay Boomer,
An enclosed/sealed system is not equal to a "closed" system.
Joules experiment took place in an enclosed/sealed chamber, that was the only kind of chamber he could construct in 1845.
A rocket may be defined as a closed system with respect to the rocket/burning fuel, during its ascent into orbit it may be several closed systems.
1. cargo capsule, main vehicle, full payload of fuel, boosters
2. cargo capsule, main vehicle, full payload of fuel
3. cargo capsule, main vehicle, partial payload of fuel
4. cargo capsule, main vehicle
5. cargo capsule
Each one of these could be treated as a closed system. FYI with each lose of a component the remaining components accelerate.
So when a scientist refers to a closed system, the definition is not a single entity, and it's parameters are defined by the nature of the question.
