What if there was electromagnetic radiation in this vacuum, would the entropy change? Also, do quantum fluctuations in the vacuum have anything to do with entropy?

I read a little bit on the arrow of time and how some physicists think that it points in the direction of increasing entropy. This made sense until I thought about a vacuum. From what I read, entropy does not increase nor decrease in a vacuum so if we used this definition on the "arrow of time"...

So they will likely not even let me attempt a double major in math and physics. I also have no problems with doing proofs and I noticed that more advanced physics has more "proofy" material so I think that would be a good tool for me to have. I will talk to an advisor as soon as possible, thanks!

Very helpful, thank you!

Hello everyone, I am currently attending a community college and at the end of spring, I will graduate with associates in mathematics and physics with roughly a 3.90(depending on the what GPA you're talking about). Physics and math are my life and I dedicate virtually all of my free time...
