What is the Second Law of Thermodynamics?

Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 12 Δεκ 2016

What
is entropy? Why is it always increasing? And what does that even mean?
Dr Valeska Ting explains the second law of thermodynamics.

This is the day 12 of our 2016 advent calendar on thermodynamics. Watch all the films here: http://www.rigb.org/christmas-lecture...

Valeska
walks us from a simple mathematical demonstration, through coffee and
refrigerators, and right up to the end of the Universe and everything in
it.

The second law of thermodynamics states that entropy, which
is often thought of as simple ‘disorder’, will always increase within a
closed system. Ultimately, this is one of the key elements dictating an
arrow of time in the Universe. And how is it possible that complex
ordered organisms and structures have developed, if everything should be
becoming less ordered over time? Valeska explains.

The 2016
advent calendar explores the four laws of thermodynamics with a new
short film each day, with explosive demonstrations, unique animations,
and even a musical number. Open the calendar at http://www.rigb.org/christmas-lecture...
