Why is time so mysterious?
3 questions about time
1.why is it that at the same time for one person time can go by slow, but for another person it can go by pretty fast?
2.would you consider it a dimension?
3.will we ever completey understand it?
time is relative. and the only known way to “time travel” is if you get close enough to a black hole. time theoreticly moves slower the closer you get. therefore if if you spend 3 months near a black hole then come back to earth it may have been 4 or 5 months, mind you this is all theory.
To answer your question; it’s more about someone being productive with their time. For example, if a person has tasks or activities to do, their minds will be set on carrying out these duties, therefore they are so busy, ‘time flies’ for them literally.
Now, if on the other hand, someone doesn’t have much work or activities to do during the day, time for them will become ‘slower’ and when they glance up at the clock, the arms hasn’t ‘moved’.
For example, someone has their EOM (end of the month) invoices and cash ups which needs to be included in the current month’s revenue and budget forecast, then this person will have to enter all their invoices and deposits into the system to meet the deadline. Once the task is completed, they will not be busy and will need to find other stuff to do to ‘pass time’, hence time is now dragging for them.
CONCLUSION: Time travels fast when your having fun or pre-occupied and time is slow when your bored and have nothing to do…(lol, this feels like TAFE essay).
Time can go faster for other people if they are travelling at different speeds. Look into time dilation. Also, gravity affects the speed of time, this is gravity dilation.
Time could be classed as a dimension, but if so, it’s a special dimension as it doesn’t really act like a dimension should. Its… complicated. It can be classed as a dimension in the sense that you can move backwards and forwards through it. It can’t be classed as a dimension because everything that exists in the universe simultaneously exists along every point in time, which is unique to time.
We will never really understand everything in the universe. Travelling backward in time is tricky. I don’t think it will be possible. Some people say travelling in the past is only possible to the point in time the “time machine” was activated, but this could just be from the idea behind the movie “Primer”, however, the movie was based upon some scientific fact. I’ve just given you some points to look into so you can decide and learn for yourself :)
And time travel is possible, we’re all travelling through time at a constant rate if you think about it ;)
if time travel was possible in the future we’d have already seen it 2day…
I take no notice of time… lifes 2 short :p
Time is an invention by man. time going by fast or slow honestly depends on your state of mind. such as: if you are in a concious state of mind, so to speak (awake maybe) time will seem to go by slower than in an unconcious mind (sleeping perhaps).Time isn’t mysterious, it is 100% predictable. at the moment it is 4:11 am. I predict that in exactly 2 mins it will be 4:13 am. =P honestly now folks.. time travel is possible.
time normally goes faster as you get older its not just a saying its sort of true imagine you are one year old. one day feels so much longer because the ratio of your life so far to that one day is fairly close once you hit say 50, one day is nothing compared to how many days you’ve already experienced, hence it feels like it flies thats why every year you get older, its like it goes faster… it sort of is also, people who are busy all the time experience faster days there just doesnt seem to be enough time, and visa versa remember, time flies when your having fun :)
dunno if time has a dimention dunno if we’ll ever understand it im hoping yes some scientists say time travel is possible in the future :D
I’ve heard time travel is possible in the future to, but only to the future, not to the past :(
