What relationships are there between the General Relativity's and Thermodynamics' concepts of time ?

I don't think there is any ';special'; relationship to them. They both remark upon the nature of time but in different ways.





I think you are referring to fact that thermodynamics gives us an ';arrow of time'; from the result that entropy is always increasing with time. Thus it gives us a way to distinguish going ';forward'; from ';backwards';.





General Relativity created the space-time four vector, and treats time almost like a fourth dimension (though still very different than the other three).What relationships are there between the General Relativity's and Thermodynamics' concepts of time ?
In order to do work you have to invest in time. If you dont dont that ,no work gets done.So the faster you move according to Einstein dilation formula the less work gets done because time has slowed down as you move faster.


Einstein dilation is interesting = The faster you move the less work Boss(the observer ) sees you do.





So when the boss says'; mach schnell';(means hurry up) ,he is really telling you ';dont work so hard.';





Thermodynamics is related to work it says the more work you try to do the more energy you lose.





As you can deduct from thes thoughts you can see that in general relativity momentum is not conserved.





Energy expanded is a function of the power applied and the time of interaction that the energy is transfered.





Relativity relates to the Energy of structure but does not mention power transfer.What relationships are there between the General Relativity's and Thermodynamics' concepts of time ?
I think they both make the assumption that time has only one direction - forward. That is, you will not see a hundred pieces of porcelain rise off the floor and form into a teacup on the edge of a table.
