    Total Entropy Change of Iron & Water: 2.2 J/K

    Can a simplistic understanding of entropy also be stated as the natural expenditure of a process falling to a lower energy state?

    Calculating Kinetic Energy of a Ball: Is it Possible?

    Can it be said that when components that contain a like kind of kinetic energy assemble together, the sum of that energy is shared between them? Abstractly it seems that this effect can be observed in every kind of cohesive bond within a physical transfer such as thermal transfer, pressure...

    Graduate Does Dark Energy follow the same rule as energy?

    Exactly my point. The only observable counter to the effect of Dark energy is mass. Otherwise it would be quite likely that the there would be a run away expansion event. This begs the question of why this expansion effect is increasing if the mass of the universe hasn't changed (reduced)...This...

    Graduate Does Dark Energy follow the same rule as energy?

    Apologies of the reiteration, but is dark energy only presumed to be a force in the presence of mass or is it based on some kind of test result?

    Graduate Does Dark Energy follow the same rule as energy?

    So if the effect of dark energy is constant, but not as prominent within large amounts of matter (mass), then could a assumption be made that the effect of dark energy is countered (minimized) by the very existence of large clusters of matter (mass)?

    Graduate Does Dark Energy follow the same rule as energy?

    Am I to understand the effect of dark energy is more prominent in areas of less baryonic matter?
