W14: The Second Law of Thermodynamics
The Heat Death of the Universe seems to be a logical consequence of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. What do you think about this theory?
Howdy Class,
This week we are going to relate the Second Law of Thermodynamics and the Heat Death Theory. The Heat Death of the Universe is a pretty intense theory if you think about it. I thought at first that it was where we just burned in a big firey-ball. But what it really entails is that the energy from a heat source essentially expands in the universe (from hotter sources to colder sources to reach equilibrium) until a maximum entropy exists, which would eventually happen considering that the universe is never ending and forever expanding. Energy can no longer be useful and do work in a predicable and useful manner. This is literally Second Law of Thermodynamic at play which states as energy is transferred, entropy increases. Do I think it will happen? I'm not sure as there are many theories out there. Is it logical? Sure it is, but there many many other theories out there for how the universe will eventually stop. None of us will live to see that or figure it out once it does happen!
I'm looking forward to all of your posts!
I need ton reply this classmate with my personal opinion !!!!!
