Thermodynamics Explained
Heat naturally flows from hot to cold, but refrigerators reverse this process, requiring work to transfer energy. Heat engines, like power plants, cannot convert all heat into work due to the second law of thermodynamics, which also introduces the concept of entropy. Additionally, the third law states that absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature, can be approached but never fully attained, highlighting the limits of energy removal in any system.In this clip
