law of thermodynamics

• Principio fundamental de la física que describe el comportamiento de la energía, el calor y el trabajo en un sistema. Las leyes de la termodinámica regulan cómo se transfiere y transforma la energía, e incluyen conceptos como la conservación de la energía (primera ley) y el aumento de la entropía (segunda ley).

A fundamental principle of physics that describes the behavior of energy, heat, and work in a system. The laws of thermodynamics govern how energy is transferred and transformed, and include concepts such as conservation of energy (first law) and entropy increase (second law).

1. Fundamental physical principleC1formal

   One of the basic principles of physics that describe the behavior of energy, heat, and work in a system.

   ley de la termodinámica

   • The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.
   • According to the second law of thermodynamics, entropy in an isolated system always increases.
   • The third law of thermodynamics says that as temperature approaches absolute zero, entropy approaches a constant minimum.
