The statistical explanation of which law supports the direction of time?
Ohm's law
Boyle's law
Second law of thermodynamics
Newton's first law
Answer
The direction of time is supported by the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease. This means that disorder always increases over time in a closed system. As time passes, systems tend to become more random and disorganized.
