    I have been studying physics at university level for 7 years now and this just blew my mind.
    None of my lectures ever managed to make relativity understandable.
    I have always just accepted the math and moved on, but you managed to explain spacetime without using any equation or symbols at all !!!

    This has made me truly understand why time is a dimension

    • @mlucasl
      @mlucasl 3 ปีที่แล้ว +61

      Not in all theories, time could not be a dimension, but a mix of many. Time could be a variable dependant over space-time. Is not truly know any much of this, and building over it is where many theories come over (like strings). Time could not be an independent dimension (like in a differential equation), because density and speed could "influence" time, taking into account that falling (through gravity) is also partially speed. The previous could talk of 5 dimensions (and 9 in some string theories), where time is co-dependent. But wait... if you take 3 axis dimensions and "rotate" them 45 degrees, or transform them into polar nomenclature, you get 3 other dimensions, so yes, as time could be an equation over density, density could be an equation over time. All these theories build over space-time, and space-time is different from space, and time. Also some errors in the video, antimatter doesn't go against regular physics, antimatter follow the same rules of gravity and not of negative gravity, what is investigated is the bast space of the maybe existent "black matter".

    • @mlucasl
      @mlucasl 3 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      "The overwhelming consensus among physicists is that antimatter has positive mass and should be affected by gravity just like normal matter. Direct experiments on neutral antihydrogen have not been sensitive enough to detect any difference between the gravitational interaction of antimatter, compared to normal matter". It could be that antimatter has negative mass, but is not a consensus neither an empirical test.

    • @mlucasl
      @mlucasl 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @Allen Why? Because there is not a consensus on whether anti-matter has positive or negative gravity. Or because there is not a consensus even on string theory. Or maybe that there is not even a consensus on whether time is a dimension to not.

    • @user-fn5sy6kh9v
      @user-fn5sy6kh9v 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      The fun part is that it is not. You can totally see in the video that time is a property of observer and is relative to it. E.g twins paradox - two different time "points" in a single space-time "point" because there are two observers. The other dimension is not time as we see it. It's something completely opposite.

    • @mlucasl
      @mlucasl 3 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      @@user-fn5sy6kh9v but yet again, any dimension can be distorted. And having 2 reference is not a proof or disproof of it. Even space (as dimension) can be altered near dense objects. So you could argue that space too is not a dimension, the reasoning behind (space-time continuum); hence you end with multiple hypotheses. The most acclaimed is space-time but is not the only one. And there is no full consensus as there is no consensus over anti-matter having 'anti-gravity' (that here is taken for granted).

      0:05 *Introduction* - The introduction explains that while the expansion of the universe can accelerate objects faster than the speed of light, this is not true movement. It is due to the underlying expansion of space itself.
      0:51 *Special Relativity* - Special relativity shows that as an object's speed increases, its time slows down compared to a stationary observer's time. At the speed of light, time would stop. However, one cannot go faster than light or go backwards in time by going faster than light. There is a curve connecting speed and time, not a straight line.
      3:37 *The Circle* - The curve connecting speed and time is a quarter circle. All objects in the universe lie on this curve. Negative speed just means movement in the opposite direction. It is impossible to go beyond the speed of light or 100% normal time flow because objects are confined to the circle.
      5:53 *Speed of Light* - The speed of light is fundamental - it is the speed all objects move at in space-time when considering both space and time. It is a universal constant.
      6:20 *Speed of Objects* - Objects cannot exceed the speed of light because they always move at the speed of light in space-time. What changes is how their speed is distributed between space and time. Slow objects give more speed to time, fast ones like light give it all to space.
      8:15 *Antimatter* - The lower part of the circle corresponds to objects going backwards in time. This provides a basis to postulate the existence of antimatter particles.
      9:23 *General Relativity* - In general relativity, gravity is the curvature of space-time which converts temporal motion to spatial motion. Near black holes, an object's circle becomes smaller until at the event horizon it has no room left for motion. From a distance, objects appear frozen at a black hole's surface.

That connection with how spacetime curvature affects the spacetime interval was just perfect, meant to be, and makes so so much sense. The universe is utterly alien and insane.

      Plenty of folk seem to hate my relativity YT videos. The idea was to show how just about any Joe Blow can discover SR. You just have to analyze "Motion" to determine what it is that is required to make motion possible. Before you know it, you end up independently deriving the SR mathematical equations. I'm a high school dropout, and in turn I had no physics background education at all, but I managed to do it. But some dingbats say that I am just bragging, and thus they miss the whole point of the video. It's about thinking in an independent manner. Granted, I did achieve this after being in a semi-coma for eight years. The semi-coma was due to me having a severe case of hypoglycemia. Those years really sucked. I could no longer spell my brothers name, and if you put 3 med pills in my hand, I could not tell you how many were there, all this was due to me no longer being able to recognize quantities greater than two. I no longer knew which was my right hand nor which was the left, and I did not have a clue which hand held the fork and which hand held the knife, and so forth. The automatic eye focusing no longer worked, and my pupils took up to 2 hours to respond to a change in light intensity. I could still type, but slowly, and only do so with one finger, since I no longer could coordinate and control both the left and right hands simultaneously. And the list goes on and on and on..... Anyhow... .......

It boggles the mind how complex this can get but I’m blown away by how simple this video made it seem.

If your antimatter twin is at spatial rest wrt point A and you are in positive spatial movement wrt point A, your twin will actually see your spatial movement as positive. Temporal movement is where things will be different. Your antimatter twin will see you as moving in the temporal direction opposite to to their own.

      To me, none of this makes sense. The claim seems to be that time slows down as speed increases.
      How can this possibly be proven when SPEED IS A FUNCTION OF TIME?
      In other words, you can only know how fast an object is travelling, relative to anything else, by assuming that the flow of time is constant for all objects.
      Again, since speed is a function of time, it makes no sense to speak of the speed of time. since its own "speed" can only be measured as a function of itself.

    I love the concept that everything is moving at the speed of light. I've never heard this presented before and it really helps answer quite a few questions for me. I still struggle with the idea of movement through space in general though. For from any given perspective movement is still unto itself. Meaning that movement through space can really only be perceived when in contrast with some other object in space. If two object were moving away from each other at half the speed of light, how do we know which one is really moving? Or are they both moving at 25% the speed of light creating the perception of half the speed of light. Couldn't both objects make the claim that the other object is the one moving away from them at said speed and that they themselves are still.
    So in the example you gave with time slowing down according to the object moving very quickly, wouldn't that slow down in time be only perceivable again through comparison with the slow moving object? From the perspective of the ship, would not time still appear to be moving at a regular speed? And then how would that work from the reversed idea, whereas the ship would consider itself to not be moving at all and would look at the object it was originally moving away from to be the one that is then moving away from it at a very high speed. How would one even be able to tell which object is actually the one going fast in the void of space?
    I feel this concept very accurately embodies the 3 point problem. In the void of space everything is relative to something else, but is still unto itself.
    Another way to think about it is, Is Andromeda moving towards the Milky Way, or is the Milky Way moving towards Andromeda? I mean the only really accurate way to say it is that the two Galaxies are moving towards each other. Now Hypothetically speaking, let's say the two galaxies were closing in on each other at the speed of light. Is one moving at the speed of light or the other? Does it matter? They would not be able to accelerate towards each other any faster than that and Lorentz transformations would assure to it. The same would go if the objects were moving away from each other in the same scenario.
    You now have me completely puzzled about how the time dilation would occur between those two systems in said example. If there was a clock on a planet in Andromeda, and one on Earth, would they relate to each other at all. If they somehow were synchronized, would the speed that the galaxies moved towards each other effect those times at all? Just like the rocket example from earlier, how would one even tell which is moving towards the other at what speed.
    Perhaps it is only revolutionary speed that actually creates time dilation, since revolutionary speed can pretty accurately be measured relatively.
    Perhaps space/time is not a all pervasive web as we currently think of itit, but kind of a thing that mass itself carries with it. Every bit of mass is like a little bubble of space time that's pull is relative to it's amount?
    I am kind of just thinking out loud here, feel free to give me any information you feel may be relevant. Thank you!

      The simple answer is, it's all relative... speed and time. Even position in the Universe.
      For example, if you use observation to determine your position in the Universe, you will find that you are dead centre, with the edge being approx 13.7 billion light years away.
      Someone in a galaxy 10 billion light years away, performing the same observations, will find that they are dead centre of the Universe too.
      Which one is correct?
      I would say they're equally correct or, more accurately ..... equally wrong.
      I don't believe the Universe has an edge and, if it doesn't have an edge, it can't have a centre. Your position in the Universe is relative/subjective. Equally, your position in time and space is subjective.
      Hope that helps.

    • @fuseteam

      yes why from our point of view the time of a fast moving object is slow, from the point of view of the fast moving object time flows 'normally' and both observations are correct, that two of the postulates of relativity:
      there is no preferred observer
      both observers are correct
      but we can go further: the speed of light is the same for all observers
      you read right *all* observers whether you look at it from our point of view or from the point of view of a fast moving object light always travels at the speed of light

      We're always moving at the speed of causality. At rest we're moving through time at the speed of light per second per second. In a car at 80 km/h we're moving ever so slightly less through time and more through space so that our total speed still equals causality. A photon moves through space at the speed of light per second and doesn't move through time at all so that it also still travels at the speed of causality.

    So I come to these videos regularly, not to understand, but to marvel. A photon travelling at the speed of light essentially experiences not time(?). Does it then even move? Or does each position for the photon just become a static "image" of the world around it? I think I'll just go back to drinking coffee.

    • @Observa_
      @Observa_ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The photon moves through space at the speed of light. We see the photon as moving through time because time is passing for us while the photon is moving through space. But from the photons point of view, no time has passed and it has only moved through space. For the photon it seems that it has traveled it's whole path through the universe at the same moment in time. It's internal clock is stopped. But for us we see the photon as moving through time because our time is passing and the photon exists in multiple of our time frames. So what is the same moment for the photon can be billions of years for us. It's all a matter of perspective. Hope this helps :)

      Actually, high speeds doesn't slow *time* down. It only *makes events take longer to happen in time.*
      I know this sounds like the same thing, but the truth is- *we can't measure time.* All we measure are events that happen in time. From our childhood, we build an intuition of 'time' by using clocks, guesstimating how long a second is, and gain a concept of 'long times' and 'short times'.
      For example, let's take the simplest clock we can imagine: a photon clock. We can say time dilation takes place when outside observers say fast-moving people's clocks _have photons that take longer to tick._
      That's an event that's taking longer. That doesn't mean *time slowed down.* Rather, we could say that when 'time dilation' occurs, _our perception of events warps, and makes it appear to take longer._
      in my opinion, photons do have 'time.' The only thing that could make a photon stop experiencing time is when *a photon no longer exists.* However, _no events occur for a photon._

    Part of this is misleading. Anti-particles don't move backwards in time ... we see positrons all the time and they travel in a way predictable with forward movement of time and they are anti-electrons or the anti-matter version of electrons; such as in beta decay.

      It's not completely wrong unless that's what you were implying, an electron moving backward in time is equivelant to a positron

      Yes, it's mathematically equivalent to say rather that the antiparticle has opposite charge, or that it's an ordinary particle moving backwards through time. It can seem weird at first, but it's actually very elegant to think about. Why would every particle have an antiparticle with all same properties except opposite charge ? It's more satisfactory to just allow particles to go back in time, and thus you don't need to introduce another form of matter. If you want the mathematical reason for this equivalence, it comes from the fact that particles with electric charge in quantum field theory are described as waves of complex numbers. These waves can either be of the form : exp(it), or exp(-it). Now you have two ways of interpreting this : you can say that your particles have either +i or -i (complex conjugate), which corresponds to saying that you have opposite charges, or you can say that your particles can have either +t or -t, which corresponds to saying that they can go forwards or backwards in time

      @@ScienceClicEN Or that the wavefunction is cycling in the opposite direction in the complex plane (hence the e^(-i t)). There's no need to explain it as backwards time travel (although it could be). I don't even know what that would mean for a particle to travel backwards in time. We cannot put a message of any sort on a single elementary particle and transport it to the past so it's meaningless for us in the macroscopic world.
      If everyone in the world always had a property like rotating clockwise as they moved then suddenly you saw a couple people moving counter clockwise you could claim their internal time is running backwards (assuming people are as simple as single elementary particles) OR they are simply moving with an opposite property compared to everyone else as everyone moves forwards in time.
      That antiparticles have flipped properties is certain. That a wavefunction could have solutions of e^-it and e^it is quite reasonable without anything moving backwards in time. We could also equally assume that particles are moving backwards in time and antiparticles forwards. Even though we are made out of particles and not antiparticles we could all still experience time moving forwards. Perhaps electrons are moving backwards and protons forwards...
      We do know there's a symmetry.
