Speed of Time Travel

Speed of Time Travel


We often come up with various units for measuring different quantities like speed, current, and sound but that's not all. For example, if we say sound we not only refer to the amount of air that the wave vibrated but also the wavelength and shrillness of it. So, attributing it to a specific unit won't work.

The same is true for other quantities like electricity, light, and many other physical and natural phenomena, and also some units are universal attributes like speed and force that is they not only are a parameter for measuring the velocity of objects but also can be attributed to sound, light, and other complex phenomena, and one name in this list is time. Yes, speed can be attributed to time, but that's not true for the physics we are now in, because we are treating time as an attribute for calculating speed and other phenomena.

In my view, physical phenomena are of three types and these are arranged in the order of importance
  1. Phenomenon The largest level which has it's own set attributes. Like sound
  2. Attributes The second-largest level which is a set of quantities that defines the phenomena. Like wavelength, pitch, volume, etc.
  3. Causatives These are the ultimate causes of the phenomena.
In this kind of structure, we are assuming time to be an attribute in various phenomena like force, speed, and many others, but if we assume it to be a phenomenon we will ultimately be able to attribute the speed to it.


So, we all know that speed is nothing but distance/time. Here, the 'time' in the formula is an attribute. So, the formula of the speed of time/time travel will obviously be distance/time.
Here distance is nothing but the amount of time traveled if it has become awfully scary. Let's try a nice thought experiment.

Imagine yourself in a time machine where you've gone out of your mind by seeing such a junkyard of buttons and levers. Acciedently you've pressed some levers and stepped on a button, and the time travel starts. You were in the year 2020 and stayed on that machine for a month till you arrived the year 2021.

In this experiment time traveled by that time machine is a year but it took just a month for you to reach there.

Here, distance = 1 year (12months).
time = 1 month.

So it's really easy to calculate the speed that is 12months/1month.
which equals to 12. That was the speed of the time machine.

Science (The commoner's view)

Science (The commoner's view) If I ask you to throw a child from the fifteenth floor of a building then will you do it?  No, isn't it. Then should I expect that you are disobedient or rude? The answer here is no also. Then if I ask why did you disobey me you'll say that the child would if I did as said by you. What are the chances of his death? 100%.  Now, If I ask why will he die? You'll say that I am a mad but the correct answer is already known by you. Even if you don't know about newton's third law.  Actually, science is used in every footstep of our life and because of it's graceful disguise it is hardly noticed. A common man uses his science everywhere but understands that he is using it when he gets something uncommon (not answerable by his common sense). In the eyes of a common man science is situated at a high side. The man who has never read a book on science will also see the books of science fearfully. This has became a trad...

The Nature of Reality

The Nature of Reality If I say you that the table is there because you are observing it and the second you close your eyes or stop seeing it it will travel past the moon, the stars, the galaxies and come back the second you open your eyes. Will you believe me? Of course no, because you know that it is at rest and will continue to be at rest till any external force is applied to it (newton's first law of motion) and yes it will be at rest no matter I watch it or not or in other words just because of my observation the reality wouldn't change or in more simpler words observation doesn't have any effect on reality.  Actually the whole classical physics relies on this statement. That's why we need science to predict future possibilities or to make life easier by doing what is convenient. Seeing from the perspective of a man or a living being, reality for him is what he observes. Imagine a situation when ancient human watched the sun many would think it's a hot ...
