Imagine you’re standing in front of a closed door. Behind it is a teenager’s bedroom, and your task is to rate how messy it is on a scale of 1 to 10. But here’s the twist: you can’t open the door – ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy remains positive and vanishes at ...

At a mysterious domain, known as “the Lab,” a group of elite researchers race to save a collapsing word; however, despite their efforts to date, Dr. Mercurius, head of the laboratory, still warns the ...

After receiving his degree in Journalism & Media Communications from CSU in 2019, Erik began building his career in online media, and found his dream job when he joined Game Rant as a staff writer.

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

Conditional use permits allow deviation from zoning laws, enhancing property utility. Getting a CUP involves an application, fee, and possibly a public hearing. CUPs can increase property value and ...

If you start with a very specific state, for example a box full of balls that are sorted exactly by colour, then if you shake the box a little, a higher entropy mixed state will develop over time.

Exactly 200 years ago, a French engineer introduced an idea that would quantify the universe’s inexorable slide into decay. But entropy, as it’s currently understood, is less a fact about the world ...
