Newton's laws state that the fundamental forces of the universe are gravity and magnetism. Don't know if you are into Marvel Comics, and are familiar with the X-men villain "Magneto," but, as a point of reference to "dumb it down" some, Magneto is powerful for two reasons; 1) Magnetism, is not just one of the fundamental forces on earth, it is one of the fundamental forces of the universe. 2) Experience; he has been manipulating his power, for a long time, its part of what makes the character so dangerous. In the Marvel continuity Magneto has cloned himself countless times, and each of those clones, has been weak; despite being younger, and having the same power as the "main" magneto, experience USING that power, is still important. In Superman II, the reason Superman is able to take on not just one but THREE fellow Kryptonians in what is basically a superpowered brawl, is because said Kryptonians only recently discovered their powers, while Supes has had a whole lifetime to practice with them. A little off topic though; I am using comics because the actual math, and how it is explained can NOT be properly conveyed online. Moving on; no celestial body, can maintain itself "spinning" and "moving" forever, it eventually runs "out of gas." When you roll a car down a hill, sooner or later, its momentum will stop, the force that pushed it will gradually make it slow down. If you take this perspective on a subatomic level, each of the countless trillions of particles that compose, well, anything, will slowly loose the "momentum" of what keeps them "moving." Grossly oversimplified to be sure, and most Physics people would probably say that is only 15% correct. The break down process, is a lot more complex, as magnetism and gravity are constantly interacting, one more thing magnetism and gravity are not the same thing, as magnetism is more the RESULT of laws governing gravity, more than a separate thing outright. Scientifically speaking, don't know if you are into comics, that means that Magneto is one of the most powerful and dangerous villains in the Marvel universe. The force of gravity isn't just you jumping off a cliff, and then plumeting to your doom; each molecule in your body, has its own gravitational force, and some Physicists have theorized that the key to space travel is figuring out the gravitational "frequency" of the universe. When you spin a top, eventually, the force that caused it to spin, will eventually dissipate. The law of entropy dictates that given the fact that EVERYTHING decays, everything can and must ultimately decay UNLESS, somehow those particles can be kept going. From a scientific point of view, immortality, is not impossible; fourth dimensional quantum energy can preserve a living human body indefinitely. That is another topic though and I have overanswered, and the answer to your question is in fact simple; the fact is, if it exists, it decays, it breaks down. Its that simple; if it exists, it falls apart. Everything around you is falling apart in fact; if you had the powers of the fictional Dr. Manhattan, you would be able to "see" it. Ultimately though, remember; cuteness, is the most powerful force in the universe.

Is the tendency of a system to become more disordered?

Assuming this is a chemistry question... The entropy of the system increases, as entropy is considered a measure of randomness of a chemical system. The universe favors entropy increases.
