What is Energy? Is Energy conserved?

[@rayzorrayzor9000]

I’ve always wondered what energy really is, I’ve searched through many pages and internet sites over the years and now finally I know Sabine is gonna put me straight - I’m gonna watch this vid with awe ! A Big Thankyou Sabine , now to settle down and watch years of wondering be answered in your vid .

She is simple the best I have found, by wide margin.

[@larryscott3982]

I didn’t glean from this what energy is. Rather description(s) of behavior. Valuable nonetheless in my attempt to hold on. Some of my free energy used by my brain may have been lost to entropy, but it’s by degree. Call it efficiency of learning. Because some of it was useful.

[@cz19856]

​@@larryscott3982 energy is just the quantity that is conserved under time translations, you define it like that. The quantity that is conserved can take many forms, depending on the problem and the variables you take into account. For example: in the problem with the rollercoaster, the quantity 1/2*m*v^2 + m*g*h (kinetic energy plus potential energy) is conserved, while the quantity m*v^2 + m*g*h is not conserved. We call the first one the energy of the system, while the second quantity is useless and has no name. It is not conserved under time translations, therefore it is not energy.

[@janpahl6015]

even with expanding universe energy IS conserved. Any electromagnetic wave forced to occupy a larger "chuck" of space-time had to conserve its original energy per volume with the current energy per volume... otherwise energy will be a quantity that increases with time

[@ZsoltCseresznye]

@@cz19856 This part I also miss from Sabine's explanation. Would you help me to understand more clearly? For example the number of the cars in the rollercoster is also conserved in time, but this amount is not considered as energy. I'd be thankful if you could explain more clearly how can energy come from Noether's theorem. Thanks

[@sjzara]

I went through three scientific degrees involving thermodynamics and this is the first clear definition of free energy I have heard. Thank you!

[@hyperduality2838]

Energy is duality, duality is energy! Potential energy is dual to kinetic energy. Apples fall to the to ground because they are conserving duality. The conservation of duality (energy) is the 5th law of thermodynamics. Gravitation is equivalent or dual to acceleration -- Einstein's happiest thought, the principle of equivalence (duality). Electro is dual to magnetic -- Maxwell's equations. Photons, light or electro-magnetic energy is dual. Positive charge is dual to negative charge -- electric charge. North poles are dual to south poles -- magnetic fields. Energy is dual to mass -- Einstein. Dark energy is dual to dark matter. "Always two there are" -- Yoda. Energy is measured in Joules (Jewels) or duals!

[@leif1075]

Wait but thebfirst law thermodumanics says energy is always conserved..and I've never heard that einstein's theories state it is not..

[@hyperduality2838]

@@leif1075 Energy is duality, duality is energy. Potential energy is dual to kinetic energy -- gravitational energy is dual. Electro is dual to magnetic -- photons are dual, waves are dual to particles -- quantum duality. Watch the following video about the antinomies or dualities of Immanuel Kant:- kzbin.info/www/bejne/baqzoax6aNaXrpY Beginning (finite) is dual to eternal (infinite). Simplicity is dual to complexity, simple (elementary, atomic, holistic) is dual to composite (molecules, reductive). Freewill (randomness, entropy) is dual to order (deterministic, predictability, syntropy). God (thesis ) is dual to the Christ consciousness (anti-thesis) creates the holy spirit or the mind/soul. Thesis is dual to anti-thesis creates converging thesis or synthesis -- the time independent Hegelian dialectic. Hegel's cat:- Alive (thesis, being) is dual to not alive (anti-thesis, non being) -- Schrodinger's or Plato's cat. Being is dual to non being creates becoming -- Plato. In physics everything is made out of energy (duality)! Conceptualism (universals) is dual to nominalism (non universal) creates realism. Realism (reality) is synthesized by duality, duality creates reality! "Always two there are" -- Yoda. The conservation of duality (energy) -- the 5th law of thermodynamics.

@A CB Well mass is energy. Not sure about volume.

[@placidesulfurik]

@A CB You misunderstood the definition. Any conserved quantity in a system with time-translation invariance is not, by definition, energy. How ever, any time-translation invariant system must have a particular quantity that is conserved, which can be verified mathematically. This particular quantity is given the name "energy" (hence why energy is, by definition, conserved), and has the dimensions of Planck's constant divided by time.

[@alwaysdisputin9930]

@@placidesulfurik Your explanation's BS. Say we're experimenting with fart gas & our experiment gives the same results no matter what time you run it, thus it has "time translation invariance". We find the amount of fart gas & the bad smell are both conserved quantities. But you don't define these to be energy. Instead you find a *3rd* conserved quantity & give it the name "energy". It just seems to be a completely arbitrary choice & you could equally have said "farts = energy"

[@fluentpiffle]

All things are 'energy'. We currently call it 'space', and the reason it is conserved is because it exists infinitely, so it is always 'everywhere'. Essentially, it is 'that which exists', as its spherical wave-motions become the 'particle effect' we call 'matter', which are subsequently returned to a purely 'energetic' state with events such as 'black holes' .. "Commendation from NASA for research work at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on the Earth's atmosphere and the Moon's surface for navigation of the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon.. Dr. Milo Wolff has found the structure of the electron consisting of two spherical quantum waves, one moving radially outward and another moving radially inward. The center of the waves is the nominal location of the electron 'particle'. These waves extend infinitely, like charge force. All 'particle' waves mix and contribute to each other, thus all matter of the universe is interrelated by this intimate connection between the fundamental 'particles' and the universe. The natural laws are a direct consequence of this Wave Structure of Matter (WSM), thus WSM underlies all of science." spaceandmotion

The only slight simplification was considering the expanding universe as a fixed background instead of something subject to backreaction from the experiment.

I remember reading the Feynman lectures, where he says: "We do not know what energy is, but we know how to measure it"

[@RedRocket4000]

Correct.

[@KibyNykraft]

Sure, but a kid could easily say the same thing. That does not tell us anything, it is just a habitual statement to fill out the lines of a book to be sold. What happens when we measure? How do we measure? What is a measurement. A measurement is an interaction of particles. These exchange their "presence", they change their mechanical dynamics by interactivity. This is what changes the energy outcome or the energy preservation or the energy measurement. We can't understand anything about energy until we accept nature as mechanistic. You know, that is the opposite of esoterica(which is the main problem in/of pseudoscience)

[@brunoborma]

@@KibyNykraft I think a child may say the same, but without embeding the baffling that the assumption carries in a phisicist assuming thr same thing. I think you are right about the pragmatic mechanicist understanding of energy. But the question of what energy really is is also a scientific affair, actually this kind of epistemological question gave birth to the scientific curiosity about nature. It is as if we wanted to make the concept clear to the eyes, so we can really know what we are dealing with. We don't want just to dominate and mold nature, but also understand and feel our interaction with it.

[@bebopbountyhead]

@@KibyNykraft Wouldn't a measurement be a description of what energy does, rather than what energy is? I would think that the only way to get around it is to establish energy as an inherent power of matter. However, as far as I can figure, that would establish energy as something that cannot be defined by our conventional means of scientific inquiry, as it is not something that is empirically evidenced, but rather inferred of empirical evidence.

[@kennythelenny6819]

@@KibyNykraft Would you say that for example when one is about to cross the road and seeing if it's clear to pass a type of energy measurement? Or as you type on your screen unconsciously tempering the degree of tactile interaction with a keyboard? I ask this because the term measurement is given but in my perception, It only refers to doing experiment in a high tech lab, which isolates me from comprehending what measurement is. The above examples I've cited at least to me seem like interactions since I'm intersecting to reveal my presence to other matter. Hopefully I've conveyed my thought process and understand why I'm asking that.

The "energy" that Sabine is describing (@ around 5:14) is a "mass" density differential between two adjacent regions of space, for example, between a full CO2 canister and the surrounding air. We say that the "system" comprised of these three distinct components, i.e. the CO2, the canister, and the surrounding air, has lower "entropy" before the CO2 is released into the surrounding air than does the same set of system components after that release has taken place ("been performed"). To sustain this "density differential" over time, some mechanism (e.g. the strength of the atomic bonds between the atoms of the [denser still] metal walls of the canister) must be in place to maintain the separation for a longer period of time than would otherwise take place -- that is, at a minimum, long enough to be "useful", e.g. for our "human" purposes. Such mass density differentials comprise the "structure" of our environment with ourselves in it. "Work" -- the interactive ("push"; applied "force"; proper acceleration; momentum transfer) displacement [i.e. from its otherwise inertial geodesic path] of one particulate mass object by its contact with another [previously spatially separated, as being likewise distinct and self-contained] mass object -- is necessary in the first place to "[self-]organize" a complex mechanical structure of density differentials ("different things") such as ourselves in our environment, and in the second place to maintain and further "organize" that structural complexity, e.g. in ways that we "humans" find "useful" to our "comfortable" survival. The gradual density equalization between two such adjacent regions of space consists of a transfer of momentum ("mass") from the higher to the adjacent lower density region, and it is "useful" to us humans if, for example, we are able to "control" the speed and direction of this equalization because we can then "use" it to transfer momentum precisely where and when we need to in the service of our further self-organizing structural self-differentiation from our surrounding environment and from the rest of the universe at large. The phenomenon of "proper acceleration" (a.k.a. "push"; a.k.a. [the application of] "force"; a.k.a. the "transfer of momentum"), as a continuous change in velocity [and being thereby physically contrasted against the "constant" velocity of light, and thereby also constituting the physical-and-phenomenological manifestation of "through-space-over-time"] is what I refer to as 'self-relative motion' -- i.e. as motion [that is changing] relative to itself [again, _as_] "through-space-over-time". So "potential energy" (E) is constituted by/as a "mass" density differential between adjacent regions of space, and "kinetic energy" (K) is constituted by the ["gradual"; "controlled"; "time-release(d)"; "spatially (relative to other mass objects) directed"] equalization of that differential. Oh, and it sounds like what she's calling "free energy" and what is called "potential energy" in other contexts are one and the same thing?

@@hyperduality2838 The apple example is cool :) I can see how duality is conserved when the movement of the apple in one part of the system gives the ability to move back, at some other part of the local system. But is duality dependent on a sort of analog universe that is oscillations in fields? What happens if that analog display of energy movement is digitized? As far as I understand the standard model, there were two types of universe, the very early one before particles had mass and then the one we see with mass. If that very early universe had essentially different, slower time or no time at all then that universe would be more like an object, a particle instead of a wave as it were. Perhaps this is still present along with the later universe. Think of it as a series of flash images, each an object, strung together like beads but essentially separate objects each of which contain the entirety. Hilbert curve? The oscillations move the images along so it appears to move, there appears to be movement, but it could be just our perception. Perhaps duality is valid but there could be this other thing too, like an artifact from the very early universe embedded in the one we see.

Curvature or gravitation is therefore dual. Negative curvature does not exist in Einstein's theory of General Relativity, it is missing! Einstein ignored negative curvature and did not provide us with a reason for doing this. Dark energy or repulsive gravity = negative curvature or hyperbolic geometry. The conservation of duality means that negative curvature must some how be incorporated into General Relativity. This is why duality is important and also why a 5th law is needed. Syntropy (prediction) is dual to increasing entropy -- the 4th law of thermodynamics. "Through imagination and reason we turn experience into foresight (prediction)" -- Spinoza describing syntropy.

@@hyperduality2838 Philosophy might affirm duality in that it exists by moving, but I don't think it's dual natured. Instead, it might be that it bifurcates ceaselessly. It confers a duality upon that which it regards. To me, awareness is fundamental, not consciousness. It's possible that awareness came into the universe with particles achieving mass, and is being and movement expressed as one. Cleverness is engagement with the environment, combined with awareness forms intelligence. Consciousness is quite a different matter...no pun intended...in that (as I see it) humans have a DAC in their heads that creates a real time moving reality picture. Sense data is digitized by the way it moves thru the body. This emulates the creation of mass, where the field is created by one type of movement and then serves as a base to convert the digital to analogue. So consciousness is different than awareness. Awareness comes from the quantum world (IS the quantum world) and is embedded in the world of oscillations in fields. Awareness is not informational, but allows it. Awareness itself is not dual natured.

But by stretching the light, doesn't it then also kinda increase the amount of that (lower wavelength-ed) light, thusly increasing the the amount of energy just as much as it decreased it? Consider an elastic string. When you stretch it, the string will get thinner (-> decreasing the amount of string per cm). However, the string will also get stretched as a whole, thereby creating more cm's of that thinned-down string. In total the thinning and the increase of length of the complete string balance each other out resulting in just the same amount of elastic string as what you started with

The loss of energy in light then thus gets converted in a gain of dark energy In both situations I described the loss of energy in light results in a gain of energy in some other form. Now I have no clue how much that gain is (situation 2: according to the currently widely accepted theories) or might be (situation 1: @scarrows option), but my gut feeling tells me that the gain might just happen to balance out the loss -> resulting again in _not an absolute loss_ of energy

[@kloassie]

@@scarrow you mean the loss of energy could be not a consequence of the expansion, but that it might be the other way around: the expansion might just be a consequence of the loss of energy? Interesting thought!

[@FunkyDexter]

No, because waves don't work like elastic strings. Waves obey the equation speed of propagation = wavelenght * frequency. Since an electromagnetic wave travels at c in a vacuum and c is constant, a longer wavelenght must correspond to a lower frequency. In quantum mechanics, the planck-einstein relation thells you that the energy of a photon is equal to planck's constant * frequency, hence lower frequency = lower energy.

[@fluentpiffle]

All things are 'energy'. We currently call it 'space', and the reason it is conserved is because it exists infinitely, so it is always 'everywhere'. Essentially, it is 'that which exists', as its spherical wave-motions become the 'particle effect' we call 'matter', which are subsequently returned to a purely 'energetic' state with events such as 'black holes' .. "Commendation from NASA for research work at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on the Earth's atmosphere and the Moon's surface for navigation of the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon.. Dr. Milo Wolff has found the structure of the electron consisting of two spherical quantum waves, one moving radially outward and another moving radially inward. The center of the waves is the nominal location of the electron 'particle'. These waves extend infinitely, like charge force. All 'particle' waves mix and contribute to each other, thus all matter of the universe is interrelated by this intimate connection between the fundamental 'particles' and the universe. The natural laws are a direct consequence of this Wave Structure of Matter (WSM), thus WSM underlies all of science." spaceandmotion

Good topic for discussion. Most physics textbooks assume that energy is a strange concept and try to define it in terms of 'work'. But really 'work' is the strange concept, with many counterintuitive examples. If you define it the proper way, using an integral, you can get a consistent theory, but this is counter intuitive. I have noticed that actually my physics students find energy intuitive. So I use it to define work (as the difference in energy between two configurations ... eg ball on the table vs. ball on the floor). The exact value of energy is often arbitrary anyway. (Depending on where you define zero potential energy, or which reference frame you are in when defining kinetic energy.)

Thank you, Sabine, for this one on conservation of energy. As a (now retired) university professor, I spent my career teaching the First Law of Thermodynamics, which states emphatically that energy is conserved. Therefore imagine my confusion when I read the reverse, that energy is not conserved in the Universe, according to the blog www.preposterousuniverse.com/blog/2010/02/22/energy-is-not-conserved/ by Sean Carroll. You've got it exactly right: photons lose energy by shifting into the infrared. Energy is created when the Universe expands, which seems even more counter-intuitive. As it turns out, all is not lost, because on our little planet earth and throughout the Milky Way galaxy, the First Law of Thermodynamics is obeyed. The First Law breaks down only for the Universe as a whole, or for the chunk of the Universe that we are privileged to see.

[@rodschmidt8952]

Can we not say that if you wanted to compress "the Universe" then it would require energy, therefore energy is stored in Universe-size (or in space-curvature!) just as it would be in a spring? And therefore, when we add in that term, total energy IS conserved?

[@mehdimabed4125]

Great video, it clarified few things to me, but not the thing I never understood : energy is, by definition, concerved. But we decompose thsi energy (that we call "total") into "sub-energies" like kinetic and potential energy, that are not concerved, but we call them ernergies. So is kinetic energy really an energy ? Another way of asking : if energy is concerved, it's time derivative is zero, so what is power ????

[@eddiegaltek]

I've long wonder what happened to the energy in a high energy X-Ray when it becomes a low energy microwave (as in the CMBR). I speculated whether it contributed to Dark Energy; not so much space stretching the wavelength of the photon as it passes through it but the wavelength of the photon expanding over time to stretch space.

[@arctic_haze]

I thought that maybe the electromagnetic energy E of the photon could be equal to the potential energy (towards infinity) caused by its mass (m=E/c^2). But it seems it is not. I need to check it out.

[@Boogaboioringale]

Since space is actually made of “something “, a photon has to “fight through it”. This would cause the photon to lose energy and thus have a longer wavelength. If space (or “spacetime “) can curve (gravity) and expand (dark energy) it must be “made” of something.

[@ps200306]

@@Boogaboioringale , what you're talking about is "tired light" (Google it), an idea that's been mostly discredited. If it was true then we'd expect to see frequency shifts in transparent materials such as optic fibres with a higher refractive index than the vacuum, and we don't.

[@eddiegaltek]

@@arctic_haze My thinking was maybe photons have a ground state like electrons in atoms. An electron in an atom wants to be at the lowest energy level and will emit photons to lose energy to get down to that lowest available energy level. Well maybe photons want to "Flat Line". To have an infinitely long wavelength with infinitely low energy. So as it is travelling through space the wavelength is slowly lengthening to get down to that lowest possible energy level; and in so doing stretching the space it's travelling through. Obviously if this idea had any merit some physicist would already have proved it.

[@Boogaboioringale]

ps200306: Yeah about that. In transparent materials, a photon hits an atom, knocks the electron to a higher energy level, then another one is emitted when it falls back down. I’m thinking space has much, much lower refractive index but who knows. I failed to mention the other thing. If space is indeed expanding, then the same amount of energy is simply spread over a longer distance so less energy per unit distance (even though we aren’t supposed to tell) or likewise longer wavelengths. Since we don’t expand as much as vast distances of space (70km/sec/per kiloparsec), it’s more noticeable for the photons than our detection devices.

Yeah it's always been a circular definition, but it's because energy is just a very hard thing to explain. It's really a quantity in a system, but we treat is as a physical thing... like photons. We might say that a laser is an "energy weapon" because it shoots photons, and photons are pure energy. But really, any normal gun is an energy weapon since it shoots out chunks of fast moving matter which are energy (E = mc^2) and have kinetic energy (KE = 1/2mv^2) and do damage as a function of that energy. In any case, it's hard to explain what energy is in a simple sentence without resorting to something else most people understand, like work, even though to define work you need to invoke energy.

I really like the rollercoaster example. Thumps up for a real life superconductiv magnets in vacuum model!

Mrs. Sabine you are always like mother for me instead of teacher

Is Time energy? is it entropic? what happens when it expires? is it personal to each object in the universe?

[@KnowThyFulcrum]

@0:34 energy is the fulcrum. motion is the lever. without the fulcrum (E), you have no lever (MC^2)

Thanks for such a great video explaining this subject. I think I could have used a 40 minute version.

Interesting video! "Noether proved that if you have a system with equations which do not change in time (time translation invariance), then the system has a conserved quantity." Is it correct/possible to express that like this (or does it mean something else): 1. An object moving away, creates both a Doppler shift + a relativistic Doppler shift as the total redshift. It becomes more redshifted due to relativistic effects, the process of producing photons is slowed down in the moving object. 2. The kinetic energy of the object is balanced as slowed down time. Slowed down rate of change at the quark level, which affects all other rates of changes in an atom. 3. It takes energy to slow down time (generally), in this case kinetic energy. Therefore energy is actually conserved (or the loss can be explained) in this case, when adding that "lost" energy (energy causing time dilation) to the total Doppler shifted EM energy. Then one could say that the energy will be conserved (adding the "lost" time dilation energy) in this simple drawing, if object A started to move away from B when both objects A and B turned on their lamps against C, and if both lamps then were turned off at the same time. redshifted light - > - - - > - Object C Object B (stationary with C) - > normal light - > - Object C Opinions and comments ?

I wish I had found this explanation earlier. It took me a long time to find an answer to the question of what happens to the energy of redshifted light.

Gravity should follow the "inverse-square law", in a Newtonian geometry sense. But, if there is any frequency-type characteristic to gravity, then that should surely induce a red-shift (or energy loss) as masses of the universe move apart. Certainly, that would explain a weakening of gravity towards the more distant edges of the universe - and, thus the speeding up of expansion would make sense. Can anyone clarify if gravity might have a sort of "red shift"?

Thanks it answered half of my question of the day🧐 funny thing is my research will involve energy at some point but right now it’s focused on time space and the transmission of information

All things are 'energy'. We currently call it 'space', and the reason it is conserved is because it exists infinitely, so it is always 'everywhere'. Essentially, it is 'that which exists', as its spherical wave-motions become the 'particle effect' we call 'matter', which are subsequently returned to a purely 'energetic' state with events such as 'black holes' .. "Commendation from NASA for research work at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on the Earth's atmosphere and the Moon's surface for navigation of the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon.. Dr. Milo Wolff has found the structure of the electron consisting of two spherical quantum waves, one moving radially outward and another moving radially inward. The center of the waves is the nominal location of the electron 'particle'. These waves extend infinitely, like charge force. All 'particle' waves mix and contribute to each other, thus all matter of the universe is interrelated by this intimate connection between the fundamental 'particles' and the universe. The natural laws are a direct consequence of this Wave Structure of Matter (WSM), thus WSM underlies all of science." spaceandmotion

So much clarity. Thank you for this

The title is Heat'. So far I haven't seen any mention of temperature, it may be found somewhere but I have yet to find it! Temperature is the 'stuff' of energy conversion or, if you will, thermodynamics 'thermo'-(heat) & 'dynamics' (motion) = turning heat into motion, the origin of the word being 'what steam engines do'. The greater the input temperature of the steam & the lower the output (cooling tower) temperature ,the greater the % of the input energy comes out of the engine and the lower the % thrown away in the cooling tower. So it is no good saying 'heat is useless', a nice high input temperature and a cold output temperature make for an efficient use of the input energy (the 'fuel'). James Watt made a lot of money selling steam engines that used one 1/4 of the fuel for the same output, because he devised a water spray that condensed the steam as it came out of the engine.
