First Law of Thermodynamics Consider a thermodynamic system
... As systems evolve to equilibrium, free energy is reduced and the number of accessible states consistent with energy constraints is maximized. This configuration becomes the most probable and is therefore the configuration of maximum entropy. All microstates are equally probable, not all configuratio ...

... 1. Consider the human body as a system and apply the first law of thermodynamics to it. We know that over any given period of sufficient length (say one day), there will be a net heat flow from the body (i.e. Q is negative) and the body will do some external work on its surroundings (i.e. W is posit ...
