Thanks for your continued help Dale. I don't disagree...but I'm unclear as to whether the Lorentz equations could be used to decipher whether or not motion and time are inseparably linked. They seem to deal with objects already in motion, and how things work when viewing that motion from...
@GRjunkie...THANK YOU! lol ...So now I don't feel so "out there" in contemplating this idea of motion and time being either interrelated or maybe even the same thing, because it appears that EVERYTHING is moving, relative to the universe at large, on a quantum level. So as a result I'm...
Thanks, Rootone.
@Ostrados, can you cite any published articles that I could read to look into your assertion? The idea that Spacetime is not directly linked to matter and motion seems somehow counter-intuitive...how can one exist without the other? Can you offer an illustration that could...
"Objects can stop moving in the space direction, but they always "move" forward in the time direction; that is to say, the world lines for the objects always extend to future time slices (unless the object is destroyed)."
With that in mind, we can answer no to your original speculation...
@TJGilb Thank you sir! That was a very interesting read, (although I confess I don't have the math to fully understand a great deal of the article)...It does however elaborate on some of the research reading I've done in relation to velocity and point of view as it relates to the perception of...
Can it be said that time is directly related to movement? That is to say, on a quantum level, if all motion were to cease, would that not bring about the cessation of time?
