👉 Isolating is a process in which one part of a system or object is isolated and considered as separate from other parts. In physics, it refers to the act of moving an object through a medium (usually air), so that only certain parts are allowed to move freely without being disturbed by the surrounding environment. For example, consider a ball rolling down a hill. Initially, the ball is at rest but when it reaches the bottom of the hill, it starts sliding downhill due to frictional forces
