The second law has a
several statements, nearly all are negative statements begin with :
we cannot ……………
So this law cannot be
proved, and the only reason for its staying is, the lack of anything natural
or man-made does not apply to it up till now, but this does not
mean it is certainly true .
But there is an important
question : if it were not true , why is it applied successfully from nearly 160
years on both natural and man-made systems ??
The answer is : the
nature of the nature and the lack of technology.
There is a simple example
: In the age of Isaac Newton the speed of escape from gravity
was calculated , but there was not a natural
thing on earth has this speed, and also man did
not make anything faster than the wagon pulled by horses, was it supposed that there should be a Fourth Law of mechanics stated " we cannot escape from the field of gravity"" ?? !!
Unfortunately, this wrong logic was behind the second law of thermodynamics .
Unfortunately, this wrong logic was behind the second law of thermodynamics .
The horse can't escape
from the field of gravity,
.but this space shuttle
can
so it isn't impossible to convert heat to useful work with 100% efficiency .
regarldess of whether the second law is correct or not, the analogy with the assumed fourth law of Newton is not realistic.
ردحذفbecause its formulation says "we cannot escape from gravity" although you previously mentioned that it is theoretically possible to escape from gravity if we have a certain speed. this simply means that at that time there was a hypothetical acceptance to the fact that escaping from gravity is possible.
maybe you dont know the difference between theory, theorem, physical law, technological limitation, and so on
