Nov 7, 2013 at 16:13 | comment | added | anna v | My answer is within the classical thermodynamic framework. The entropy statement ( entropy stays constant or increases) holds only for closed systems in classical thermodynamics of course. | |
Nov 7, 2013 at 15:55 | comment | added | user27799 | I am not wrong. I am asking a question in the context of classical thermodynamics. But I have found the answer. Why dont you go to all the questions on Newtonian mechanics, SR, and QM and tell them how wrong they are? | |
Nov 6, 2013 at 18:39 | comment | added | anna v | Well, you are wrong in my opinion. Classical thermodynamics is a mathematical model for physical systems, physics, not mathematics and video game suppositions. The second law needs closed systems , period, otherwise entropy can decrease as in crystalization if the liquid is not taken into account, and all living things, if their total environment is not taken into account. | |
Nov 6, 2013 at 17:26 | comment | added | user27799 | Your answer is completely irrelevant, in classical thermodynamics you can have perfectly isolated systems, you can also have ideal gases, point particles and locks that dont deterioate. Your answer is analogous to saying that energy isnt conserved in newtonian mechanics because the universe is expanding. | |
