I may be wrong, but I will pay 200 GBP to AIDS research if you can find anywhere at EvC I have ever said that "mass increases with velocity"

If you promise to give $200 to the nearest high school maths teacher, I'll dig it out.

Lucy,you forgot one of the most important part of the quote which is:

The end of the quote,as you will notice, changes greatly the sense of the phrase. While you could easily find what is described in the former quote, you couldn't find what is described in the latter quote. That's why what you just did is called QUOTE MINE lucytheape.

Percy, your spent fuel is no longer any good for the combustion engine, but it's fuel for the plants that will eventually fuel your engine again. But what's that got to do with the 2nd law?
​
Lucy, you do know that perpetual motion machine doesn't work,right? (it's because of the 2LOT btw) Obviously you wouldn't have said this if you understood the 2LOT.

Re: 2LoTD
Btw, Rahvin, I'm not Son Goku, just Son and a new member. I fear I'm far from being as knowledgeable as him though I'm flatered you mistook me for him (and I'm French so forgive me for any mistakes I do plz). Son happens to be my real name and i didn't think it would be confused with him.

Re: 2LoTD
We were talking about USEABLE energy(meaning FREE energy), meaning energy that can be converted to WORK. Look at Perpetual motion - Wikipedia in the paragraph perpetual "motion machine of the second kind", it will explain where you are confused.
​
Your example(with the fuel) doesn't violate the 1st law but the 2LOT, the one we were talking about.

Re: FIN!
Before moving the topic again, shouldn't you answer the other posts related to 2LOT?
