    Entropy Time
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between time and entropy, particularly the concept of the "arrow of time" and the second law of thermodynamics. Participants inquire about the reasons behind the increase of entropy over time, noting that the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The connection between particle motion and time is also highlighted as a significant area of interest. References to Richard Feynman's lecture are provided for further exploration of these concepts. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the complexity and mystery surrounding the interplay of time and entropy.

Are you asking about the "arrow of time" and the 2nd law of thermodynamics? If so, what have you studied so far?

Also, if you look at the bottom of this page, you will see links to several PF threads discussing this topic.

The time.Just time and entrophy.Like particles motion and time, the connection between them.

Why with time entropy increases ?
 
Nobody knows. That's just how it is.

Thanks a lot
 
From an engineering standpoint, entropy is unrecoverable waste heat.
