John Harmonic Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Why is it only things of small scale that experience loss of energy relative to the universe size. Heck even the universe is expanding.
StringJunky Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) As the universe expands, its energy is being diluted over a larger volume; it is cooling. Its final destiny is probably heat death. Edited September 26, 2018 by StringJunky
John Cuthber Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 What "resonance of the entire universe"?
John Harmonic Posted September 26, 2018 Author Posted September 26, 2018 Everything in the entire universe is basically in motion and oscillating (in a pattern? who knows). When I talk about resonance I mean for the universe to be in a continued state of peak oscillation at all times for it never lose or gain energy. So its basically in continuous resonance. My question is why is everything at the small scale, relative to the size of the universe always losing energy? But somehow the universe is expanding at the same time.

But somehow the universe is expanding at the same time. Small objects have somewhere for energy to go (the rest of the universe). While the energy of the universe has nowhere to go (there is nowhere “outside the universe “). On the other hand, the total energy of the universe is not well defined, so we can’t really say if it is lost or conserved.
