Question

Is gravity the opposite of entropy


Open in App
Solution

Gravity:

The force that pulls items toward the center of a planet or other entity is called gravity. All of the planets are kept in orbit around the sun by the force of gravity.

Entropy:

  1. Entropy is the measurement of the amount of thermal energy per unit of temperature in a system that cannot be used for productive work.
  2. Entropy is a measure of a system's molecular disorder or unpredictability since work is produced by organized molecular motion.

There is no repulsion between the planets and the sun.

  1. The application of a centripetal force on a moving object, which is done by gravity, is required to maintain circular movement.
  2. Gravity is the polar opposite of hilarity.
  3. Negentropy is the inverse of entropy.
  4. This indicates that things are becoming more ordered.
  5. Order is the opposite of randomness or disorder, implying organization, structure, and function.
  6. Negentropy can be seen in a star system like the solar system.
  7. The inverse of entropy is negentropy.

Hence, gravity is the opposite of entropy.
