  • Have you ever heard of a perpetual motion machine? More to the point, have you ever heard of why perpetual motion machines are impossible? One of the reasons is because of the first law of thermodynamics! In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini talks to us about thermodynamics and entropy. Also, we learn about isovolumetric, isobaric, isothermal, and adiabatic processes. It'll all make sense in a minute!

    Physics is so interesting when you actually get to know and understand it, I really want to sue all my school teachers for not doing their jobs correctly and for only scraping the surface when it comes to Physics, it really is just so frustrating when you are so interesting in something that you can't even understand properly

  • @theonionpirate1076

    Other question- in the isobaric process example, it seems like the gas cooled when the piston was pushed down. I understand that in the equation, a temperature decrease would balance a decrease in the volume of the container. But, by what mechanism does this happen? I can't figure out *how* decreasing the volume would cause the gas to cool. It seems to me like if anything, doing that would actually cause the molecules to move even faster, although to an imperceptible amount. And after all, as she said, we're doing work on the system, so unless there's an exit for heat, wouldn't the internal energy increase? Would pushing the piston down not just raise the pressure of the gas in an inverse ratio to keep the left-hand side of the equation of equal value?

    I wonder why they used an equation for internal energy with the work portion subtracted. I've never seen it that way before myself. It's not a big deal since she immediately gives the disclaimer about some books having the opposite convention, I just wonder why anyone would even use the other sign convention since it seems to me to make much more logical sense to have positive work be work done on the system since that is more in line with the sign conventions for heat.

    8:36- U say that the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (i.e. entropy of the Universe always increasing) is based on high probability. Does that mean that it is possible, however unlikely, that there will be instances where the entropy of the entire universe will actually DECREASE? After all, given an eternity, anything can happen.

  • @someonesomeone9765
    @someonesomeone9765 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    The universe expands, also the universe before, we are come from out of a whitehole/blackhole is expanding. New expanding space means new place for energy and after the opened event horizon we are probably a tinier molecular universe inside a gigantic quark or something, what's mean more place for more energy.

    How does heat transfer from hot to cool increase net entropy? I'll have to think about that a bit while listening to Muse's 2nd Law... both.

    Hello Mam,
    When I computed the work done in pool (billiard) the white mother ball break the 15ball. The work brought OUT is more than the work brought IN. Let’s try to compute.
    F = 30lbs (White Mother Ball); D = 3ft (From the white mother ball to the first ball to strike)
    SOLVE FOR ENERGY IN
    W = F X D; W = 30lbs x 3ft = 90Ft.lbs ENERGY IN
    SOLVE FOR ENERGY OUT
    First two ball extreme corner of the billiard ball 2 out of 15 ball
    W = F X D; W = 30lbs x 3ft = 90ft.lbs X 2ball = 180 ft. lbs
    The remaining ball (13pcs ball) can produce more than 90 ft.lbs
    The computation shows that the output work done is higher than the input work done
    so the theory of conservation of energy is misconception.
    Appreciated for your reply
    Thank you.

    Know what would help a lot with remembering all these sci-ency words? An understanding of etymology of Latin and Greek words of course! You could drop some of that knowledge in the Crash Course Lin-guist-ics course you should do! Pretty please.

    have you done a video on the zeroth law?

    Wait- around 2:15 she says that the First Law only describes Heat and Work, because if a system is closed, then those are the only two things, and they're equal to each other. Therefore, she says, the First Law is just restating the Conservation of Energy. But in that case, wouldn't deltaU just be 0, making the term unnecessary?
    I understand the Law, but I'm not sure she explained that correctly. Or am I misunderstanding?

    I hate when people say that entropy = disorder. ir gives a really wrong idea of how it works
    energy always tries to spread equally everywhere, it has nothing to do with order or disorder. that means entropy is closer to equilibrium than disorder.

    • @Laff700

      Equilibrium is orderly. Disorder is chaos.

      Laff700 you could say that is the inverse. but how about crystals ? they are fruit of entropy. technically when they form they have less entropy than the space around it, but it is formed naturally when the gas or whatever try to go to a less energy state. so is it order or disorder ? the comparison doesn't make sense

      Crystallization is an exergonic process, so when crystals form, the entropy of the molecules forming the crystal decrease due to crystallization, but the entropy and thereby disorder of the overall system increases due to the released heat. Same reason why complex living organism can exists despite the 2nd law. Entropy indeed equals a state of lesser order, although 'equals a state of higher probability' fits the bill better.

      I agree, entropy is a much easier concept when introduced by statistical mechanics as the logarithm of the multiplicity multiplied by boltzmann's constant

      I listened to Unsustainable whilst studying thermodynamics. Singing it in your head during a test is quite effective.

    • @Pitazboras

      Well, about that... I was let down by those songs because they got the science and reasoning wrong. The whole idea is summed up by this part: "In an isolated system, the entropy can only increase / A species set on endless growth is unsustainable". Well, first of all, in an isolated system *any* process doing non-zero work is unsustainable, endlessly growing or not. But more fundamentally, Earth is *not* an isolated system so the whole premise is wrong.

      They just used the 2nd law as a way to point out the corruption of politics and the chaos they cause. "In an isolated system (corrupted country that refuses to open up), entropy (chaos and disruption) can only increase." Rather than the entropy itself.
