Russell, you 'opem' and 'close' a system? Why woulod
you close it, once it is already open? and how would
you find it again, when it is closed?
And how do you assess those "closed system laws", if
no info goes in or out? (need an intelligent design?)
Is OUR time-scale valid to the inside of an u
Tom, yhou are right: my remark was not aiming AT YOUR
implied situation of 'from inside' of the system.
The outside case YOU DID ACCEPT AS OK, but you play
with words.
If < n o > interaction can leave the system (you are
outside) then it cannot "allow output" whatsoever.
None. If there aint, there
In a general sense, if we (the observer) are outside of the system,
there is a definition of "closed system" which allows output from the
system, even though there is no input into the system, *if such a
configuration is possible*. If there is no output, I agree with you
that the system is unknow
We can observe a closed system at two points in time t0, t1 say. The
system is closed in between, but not at the point of observation,
obviously.
The evolution of the system between the two observation points must
follow closed system laws.
