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.
