  2. Conservation of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy

    This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 4 December 2024. Law of physics and chemistry This article is about the law of conservation of energy in physics. For sustainable energy resources, see Energy conservation. Part of a series on Continuum mechanics J = − D d φ d x {\displaystyle J=-D{\frac {d\varphi }{dx}}} Fick's laws of diffusion Laws ...

  3. First law of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_law_of_thermodynamics

    This problem is solved by recourse to the principle of conservation of energy. This principle allows a composite isolated system to be derived from two other component non-interacting isolated systems, in such a way that the total energy of the composite isolated system is equal to the sum of the total energies of the two component isolated ...

  4. Conservation law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_law

    In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves over time. Exact conservation laws include conservation of mass-energy, conservation of linear momentum, conservation of angular momentum, and conservation of electric charge.

  5. Thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamics

    where U 0 denotes the internal energy of the combined system, and U 1 and U 2 denote the internal energies of the respective separated systems. Adapted for thermodynamics, this law is an expression of the principle of conservation of energy, which states that energy can be transformed (changed from one form to another), but cannot be created or ...

  6. Thermodynamic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_equations

    The truth of this statement for volume is trivial, for particles one might say that the total particle number of each atomic element is conserved. In the case of energy, the statement of the conservation of energy is known as the first law of thermodynamics. A thermodynamic system is in equilibrium when it is no longer changing in time.

  7. Conserved current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conserved_current

    In physics a conserved current is a current, , that satisfies the continuity equation =.The continuity equation represents a conservation law, hence the name. Indeed, integrating the continuity equation over a volume , large enough to have no net currents through its surface, leads to the conservation law =, where = is the conserved quantity.

  8. Continuity equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_equation

    Continuity equations are a stronger, local form of conservation laws. For example, a weak version of the law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed—i.e., the total amount of energy in the universe is fixed. This statement does not rule out the possibility that a quantity of energy could disappear ...

  9. CP violation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CP_violation

    However, the same measurement using the full 3.0 fb −1 Run 1 sample was consistent with CP-symmetry. [20] In 2013 LHCb announced discovery of CP violation in strange B meson decays. [21] In March 2019, LHCb announced discovery of CP violation in charmed decays with a deviation from zero of 5.3 standard deviations. [22]
