entropy

In Tenet, he does this with time and entropy, proposing a world in which humans have figured out how to reverse the natural process of decline and move backward.

In a piece of rubber like Gough’s, the increase in entropy happens in the vibrational motion of the molecules.

While entropy is related to a system’s disorder, it’s more precisely described as a measure of the number of configurations a system can have.

According to the second law of thermodynamics, the total entropy of a closed system must increase, or at least remain constant.

If the entropy of the rubber’s molecular configuration decreases, then the entropy must increase elsewhere.

Until Tuesday, Occupy Wall Street seemed, at least from the outside, to be entering a stage of entropy.

The summation is defined as the increase in entropy between the initial and the final states.

All organic life and movement must cease when this maximum of entropy has been reached.

The reader is therefore warned that the proper way to say it is, "the entropy of the universe tends to a maximum."

Mirrors of anti-entropy shifted, assumed different angles, and the Invincible sheered off.

When they pierced the anti-entropy, they would cut through the steel plates of the Invincible like so much paper!
