The structure of time has always been a topic of fascination and debate. Is time linear? If so, how does it relate to our physical quanta? This paper introduces arguments focused on the study of time and time-dependent equations. It suggests that time is dependent on the observer's size or mass. This realization changes the basic inputs of many physical equations and elegantly resolves inconsistencies in such equations.
The major outcome of this study is the acknowledgment that as mass increases, the apparent speed at which time passes also increases proportionally. The measurement of time we use now is of local interest only. The second is based on a heliocentric planetary rotation model, which does not translate to the farther reaches of the universe nor properly describe physics on a quantum scale. The ideas presented in this paper attempt to bridge these gaps and possibly describe a unification theory of all substantial entities.
Introduction
Time is understood as the passage of a sequence of informational changes to an observer. The quantification of these changes over a specific length of time has allowed us to predict and calculate events within a causal structure. These predictions stand true for many scenarios but fall short on a quantum scale and universal measurements. The idea that time passes slower for smaller objects is foreign and benign. This paper provides arguments supporting this case.
Time has been the focus of many scholars’ careers. Although the study may be purely theoretical, many experiments have been developed to confirm or deny various facets of what time is. Newtonian physics summarizes this law with velocity equals distance divided by time (v=d/t). For a layman's explanation, this equation can be deconstructed to isolate time, inserting a new factor to replace what we currently measure in seconds with a unit that more accurately represents the passage of information. This factor, analogous to the change in entropy, is denoted as the Sweere factor (z).
Now we have v=d/z.
For predictions within the range of about 10^-10m to about 10^10m (herein called common time or common size), z could be expressed as seconds. Above and below that range, we must impose z to take on its actual value, measuring how many events have passed in that timeframe. If z equaled 20 seconds in common time, it was representing 20 seconds worth of zeers. A zeer is an event that would be plotable on a timeline.
Imagine a timeline going forward. Any section of this line can be cut out to produce a quantifiable amount of time, which can be expressed in seconds. According to Einstein, this amount of time can be stretched due to gravity. The strength of gravity depends on the entity’s mass. Therefore, even though the amount of seconds remains the same, the amount of time passing depends on the observer’s relational size to the entity in question.
Entropy grows as the universe expands until it reaches its maximum. Related to time, this suggests that as the universe expands, the passage of time quickens to the point that time cannot pass any faster and crosses into infinity. Infinity is where time runs out. Light is timeless, as is the speed of light. The Andromeda paradox can be solved using this methodology.
