Title: Energy of a system
Post by: aldoxime_amine on March 12, 2009, 12:01:42 PM
Why should the energy of a system be low? Or better phrased, why does a system tend to attain a low energy state?

Is it the fundamental axiom of thermodynamics? of physics?

My question is not a philosophical one. It is an honest question...
