RE: Maxwell's Demon: Violation of The Second Law of Thermodynamics

in #steemstem7 years ago (edited)

Ah, the entire framework is completely in classical physics, so we haven't taken account of the quantum effects( like Heisenberg's uncertainityy principle) that will affect the system. The size of the demon is not of particular interest but if the size of demon is comparable to the size of a molecule, then the demon will vibrate like the molecules making the measurement nearly impossible :)
