Why Does Time Go Forward?

The video explores the behavior of water molecules and how they align with our expectations of the universe. It delves into the laws of physics, particularly the concept of time reversal, and discusses entropy and the second law of thermodynamics. The video raises questions about why the universe was initially ordered and highlights the mystery of this order, encouraging viewers to stay curious.

What does the behavior of water molecules in a glass demonstrate about our expectations of the universe?

• That they fit our expectations due to physical laws

• That they defy the laws of physics

• That they are completely random

• That they are unpredictable and chaotic

According to the second law of thermodynamics, what does the universe tend towards?

• A constant state of equilibrium

• Reversibility of events

• Disorder and increased entropy

• Order and stability

Why is it unlikely to get a million heads in a row when flipping a coin?

• Because it's mathematically impossible

• Because coins are biased

• Because of the law of gravity

• Because there are more ways for it not to happen

What is one of the great unsolved mysteries in physics related to the universe's order?

• Why gravity exists

• Why the universe was ordered at the beginning

• Why the universe is expanding

• Why time moves faster in space

What does the narrator suggest about our expectations and the universe?

• Our expectations are shaped by the universe

• The universe defies our expectations

• The universe is unpredictable and chaotic

• Our expectations are independent of the universe
