Natural Science Forum / Physics / Relativity / August 2005relationship between the law of large numbers and entropy
Would it be worthwhile to extend the physical interpretation of probability to the statistical-mechanics definition of entropy, which suggests that in general, the highest-probability configuration of (insert whatever) is the one generally achieved, and this tends to maximize the disorder in the system? (eg. air molecules in a room - the highest probability outcome is the one in which the number of atoms is about equal per unit volume; another way of saying this is that it is entirely possible that all the air molecules at once could shift to one corner of the room but the length of time required to observe for this low-probability outcome is longer than some absurdly high number). --24.80.119.229 05:25, 19 August 2005 (UTC)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Probability according to the definition of the law of large numbers, the higher the number of trials in an experiment, the closer the outcome seems to get to the theoretical prediction. thus it seems that the relationship between the law of large numbers and entropy is the following: the larger the number of trials in an experiment, the closer seems the outcome to converge (the entropy decreases) to the theoretical prediction. > Would it be worthwhile to extend the physical interpretation of > probability to the statistical-mechanics definition of entropy, which [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > the larger the number of trials in an experiment, the closer seems the > outcome to converge (the entropy decreases) to the theoretical prediction. Thanks for confirming what I expected a post only idiot troll such as yourself would do. Instead of using the link I gave as a starting point to increase your obviously deficient knowledge you simply parroted it back. Idiots such as yourself provide good evidence that if God did exist he/she has a wicked sense of humor - he/she would be in stitches at the antics of people like you who profess to Christian values. You probably spend your life going around telling everyone to turn or burn or other such fundamentalist drivel and at the same time engage in behavior so stupid and asinine that if God did exist and punished people for sins committed he/she would have you in the flames of hell for eternity. The thing is of course God in not the only one with a sense of humor - all your posts really do is give people a good laugh. Bill Prejudice is, as the name implies, the process of "pre-judging" something. In general, it implies coming to a judgement on the subject before learning where the preponderance of the evidence actually lies. nam-myoho-renge-kyo nam-myoho-renge-kyo nam-myoho-renge-kyo..... Nam Myoho Renge Kyo (???????, also transliterated Namu Myoho Renge Kyo) is a mantra, which is recited as part of the practice of Nichiren Buddhism. This practice is referred to as daimoku (??). >> Would it be worthwhile to extend the physical interpretation of >> probability to the statistical-mechanics definition of entropy, which [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Bill > Prejudice is, as the name implies, the process of "pre-judging" something. > In general, it implies coming to a judgement on the subject before [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > a mantra, which is recited as part of the practice of Nichiren Buddhism. > This practice is referred to as daimoku (??). Did you pen that while sitting in the lotus position chanting om, om, om (which I believe is the most common mantra) and ignoring your obvious comprehension problem that does not allow you to distinguish between posts related to relativity and incoherent new age slogan based tranquilizing drivel?

During the session I got a message that George Hammond was God. |
