Questions and Answers

What is the key difference between a physical model and an analytical model?

Physical models are intangible, while analytical models are tangible.
Physical models change over time, while analytical models remain static.
Physical models are used for testing, while analytical models are used for visualization.
Physical models represent real-world objects, while analytical models describe system behavior mathematically. (correct)

In the context of systems, what does augmented reality technology primarily aim to do?

Enhance user perception by overlaying digital information onto the real-world environment. (correct)
Replace physical and analytical models.
Imitate the operation of systems over time.
Create static representations of systems.

What differentiates a system delivered as a tangible product from a system delivered as an intangible service?

The tangible product does not meet specific needs, unlike the intangible service.
The tangible product cannot be simulated, unlike the intangible service.
The tangible product is more complex than the intangible service.
The tangible product is a physical object, while the intangible service is not. (correct)
