TIME: FUNDAMENTAL VS EMERGENT

The emergent refers to a system whose properties or processes are not reducible to those of its constituent parts.

The emergent properties belong to the system as a whole and not to its constituent parts.

Of time we perceive changes, but not their magnitude or quantity. We perceive changes, but not their duration.

It does not matter if it is absolute or relative, fundamental or emergent, dependent or independent of space, time is magnitive. This category does not have an opposite and is an epithet of time.

P. S.

1- Magnitive (from magnitude): something imperceptible that is known for its effects and its measurement.

2- Time is made up of changes and duration T (CD).

WHAT IS THERE BETWEEN TWO SEQUENTIAL EVENTS?

Time is the physical quantity that separates two sequential events or moments. The past is invariable and the future is inevitable. These qualities inherent in time confirm its existence. Between two simultaneous events there is no time. Events can be independent or belong to the evolution of the same change.

For example, since the discovery of America (1492) to the independence of the United States (1776), "there is" an independent time. Since sunrise to sunset "there is" a time of evolution (day). Notice that I use the expression there be because time is an objective, but imperceptible physical quantity (magnitive).

With the measurement of time (duration) a space (1D) is represented that is occupied by the evolution of changes. Changes, as they evolve, fill that space (time).

The material basis of the measurement of time are periodic changes.
