Ah, it's basic thermodynamics. I'm sure we can figure that out.

只很基础的力学，我们俩肯定能搞定。

And both keep you warm using the same thermodynamic principles.

而两者都利用相同的力学原理来保暖。

Who knows what they made of the heat, but the physicist Lord Kelvin — of temperature fame, naturally — had a theory: Earth started off hot, and has been cooling down ever since, like a baked potato pulled from the oven.

谁也不知道地球的量怎么来的，但以力学而著名的物理学家 Kelvin 有一个理论：地球开始的，然后逐渐冷却了下来，就像一个烤土豆放进烤箱。

Calories in calories out, it's a rule of physics — of thermodynamics, so it is, of course, correct... but when it comes to understanding weight loss, it's practically irrelevant.

只要卡路里消耗大于摄入就可以减肥，作为力学的一项基本法则，这当然没错......但要真正理解减肥原理，这一法则实际上毫不相干。

Ideas for perpetual motion machines all violate one or more fundamental laws of thermodynamics, the branch of physics that describes the relationship between different forms of energy.

永动机的想法都违反了力学的一个或多个基本定律，力学描述不同形式能量之间关系的物理学分支。

He never accepted the revised figures and to his dying day believed his work on the age of the Earth his most astute and important contribution to science, far greater than his work on thermodynamics.

他拒不接受那个修改的数字，直到临终那天还认为自己算出的地球年龄对科学有眼、要的贡献，要比他在力学方面的成果要得多。

According to the Ideal Gas Law, P-V N-R-T, pressure and temperature has a positive correlation, meaning they increase and decrease together.

根据理想气体定律，PV=NRT[br]（P理想气体压强，V理想气体体积，N气体物质的量，R理想气体常数，T理想气体的力学温度）压强和温度呈正相关，这意味着它们同时增加或减少。

Greene takes one of his most powerful whacks at entropy, attacking the nettlesome business of the second law of thermodynamics

格林对熵，对这个令人头疼的力学第二定律发起了他猛烈的攻击。

Even if engineers could somehow design a machine that didn't violate the first law of thermodynamics, it still wouldn't work in the real world because of the second law.

即使工程师能以某种方式设计出不违反力学第一定律的机器，由于第二定律，它仍然无法在现实世界中工作。

Planck didn't listen. He studied theoretical physics and threw himself body and soul into work on entropy, a process at the heart of thermodynamics, which seemed to hold much promise for an ambitious young man.

普朗克不听，他钻研理论物理学，潜心投入了力学的核心问题——熵的研究工作。在一个雄心勃勃的年轻人看来，研究这个问题似乎很有前途。

Once you've got a bit of thermodynamics with the duck, you can also explain fridges.

一旦你对鸭子有了一点力学的了解，你也可以解释冰箱。

Well sometimes the reverse reaction isn't as thermodynamic spontaneous for one reason or another.

有时，逆反应由于某些原因并不力学上自发的。

And so there's a sort of almost a thermodynamic idea at the root of this.

因此，这背后几乎有一个力学的概念。

Take from this, from this brief emergence of complexity that arises from simple things and then goes into a heat death that is once again returns to simple things as the march of the second law of thermodynamics goes on?

从这一点来看，从这种由简单事物产生的复杂性短暂出现，然后又进入寂，再次回归简单事物的过程中（随着力学第二定律的进程）？

Also, if you're  wondering about its relation to all of that second law of thermodynamics stuff from physics, there  definitely is a connection, but in its origins Shannon was just dealing with pure probability  theory.

另外，如果你在想它与物理学中力学第二定律的关系，确实有联系， 但在其起源时， 香农只在处理纯粹的概率理论。

The no boundary proposal for the universe predicts the existence of a well-defined thermodynamic arrow of time because the universe must start off in a smooth and ordered state.

宇宙无边界提议预测了明确定义的力学时间箭头的存在，因为宇宙必须以平稳有序的状态开始。

Fully understanding the thermodynamic Rube Goldberg machine that is The Climate is more appropriate for the scope of a full university-level course, not a single YouTube video.

全面理解这个力学的复杂系统——气候， 更适合在大学级别的课程中进行深入探讨，而非仅凭一则YouTube视频就能涵盖。

And it's interesting because if we only take into account what I was telling you, the surface tension, this is a property that is purely thermodynamical.

这很有趣， 因为如果我们只考虑我刚才告诉你的表面张力，这一种纯粹的力学性质。

We know from the second law of thermodynamics in physics that energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transferred from one form to another.

根据物理学中的力学第二定律， 能量既不能被创造也不能被消灭，只能从一种形式转化为另一种形式。

Last time, we talked about the four types of basic thermodynamic processes.

上次我们讲了四种类型 简单力学过程的主体。
