Dunno. I'm just glad to see that you have finally dropped your use of the 2nd law argument.![]()
From where did we get the energy of the Cosmos
if not from an outside source.
Second Law: Entropy
Second Law of Thermodynamics: In any cyclic process the entropy will either increase or remain the same.
Entropy: a state variable whose change is defined for a reversible process at T where Q is the heat absorbed.
Entropy: a measure of the amount of energy which is unavailable to do work.
Entropy: a measure of the disorder of a system.
Entropy: a measure of the multiplicity of a system.
Since entropy gives information about the evolution of an isolated system with time, it is said to give us the direction of "time's arrow" . If snapshots of a system at two different times shows one state which is more disordered, then it could be implied that this state came later in time. For an isolated system, the natural course of events takes the system to a more disordered (higher entropy) state.
