EXPERIMENTS WITH TIME

Is it possible to experiment with time?

An experiment is the practical test or examination carried out to study the properties of a phenomenon. Experiments are classified into: natural, field and laboratory.

Some examples of experiments are:

1- It is observed that living beings have a beginning (birth), a duration (development) and an end (death).

2- When we get older, time seems to flow faster.

3- It is observed in nature that some phenomena have an irregular duration and others phenomena have a regular duration.

4- In a clock with hands we observe that they travel the dial at a regular and periodic rhythm (changes).

5- The photon effect

For a photon traveling at the speed of light, time does not pass or does not exist. The photon has no "notion" of time. This photon "believes" that its journey through space has been instantaneous.

In conclusion:

We perceive changes or duration, but not time. The diversity of ways of perceiving duration has led many theorists to think that time is an illusion. In reality, time is magnitive in all frames of reference. Space isn't magnitive because is perceptible. Space-time originates from multiplying time by the speed of light. Space-time is a methematical trick.

ARISTOTLE AND PHILOCHRONY

Time according to Aristotle

For Aristotle, time is the measure of movement according to before and after. Time is what we measure changes with. For Aristotle what makes the measurement of time is the soul (mind). According to this philosopher the soul is an indispensable condition for the existence of time. If the mind did not exist, time would not exist. For Aristotle, time has no meaning if there were not someone to keep track of the changes.

There are many theories of time (Aristotle, Kant, Newton, Einstein, Heidegger, etc.), but only one theory of duration-time (Philochrony). Time exists in the duration of regular rhythm or in periodic phenomena. Before the human being existed the periodic phenomena existed (for example, the movements of the planets and stars).

Duration-time (D-T) is represented by the parallelochron and time in perspective. The basis of time is duration, it is not the space or the subject.

TIME IN PERSPECTIVE

The scheme of tine in perspective is a modification of the parallelochron.

EXPLANATION OF THE MAGNITIVE TIME

Since September 16, 2017 I am saying that the magnitive time is:

1- Objective: sequential occurrence of changes with a beginning and an end.
2- Imperceptible: We perceive the beginning before and the end after, but not both at the same time. We don't have a sense to do that.
3- Measurable: through the continuous occurrence of periodic phenomena. Time always presents us with a measure because periodic phenomena are always occurring.

Many people believe that time does not exist or is an illusion and this is because these people do not associate the objectivity of time with its imperceptibility.

Consider the minute hand on a clock. When the minute hand travels the entire dial, an hour has passed (or less time if the watch is moving at high speed). This is an objective process. We see the beginning before and the end after of the hour, but not both at the same time. We don't see time.
