Lecture 4. Macrostates and Microstates (Ch. 2 )
... The past three lectures: we have learned about thermal energy, how it is stored at the microscopic level, and how it can be transferred from one system to another. However, the energy conservation law (the first law of thermodynamics) tells us nothing about the directionality of processes and cannot ...

Notes
... – Also called “inertia of motion” • Momentum describes how difficult it is to bring an object to rest – The faster an object is moving, the harder it is to bring it to rest – The larger the mass of the object, the harder it is to bring it to rest – This means that momentum must depend on mass and sp ...

Reductionism and Emergence: Implications for the Science/theology
... The development of spacetime with time takes place just as is the case for other physical fields, with the relevant time parameter being proper time τ along the fundamental flow lines. There is no problem with either the existence or the rate of flow of time. Time flows at rate of one second per sec ...
