According to Einstein, time is relative. If I move really fast time is passing slower for me. So time and its effects vary, there should be more than 1 dimension for time in the existing model. Or time should be separated from spatial + other dimensions just because its an outcome of gravity (and other factors) that we cant override and change. This is what Einstein quote is claiming I suppose.
- henrikschroder 15y agoWhat you are saying makes no sense. Why do you need more than one dimension for time coordinates to express time dilation? How is time an outcome of gravity?!?
- thejbf 15y ago>> Why do you need more than one dimension for time coordinates to express time dilation Because in theory, there is no absolute time we can take as reference. 1 year for an object on moon is not 1 year for an object on Jupiter. So time dimension may include other factors that defines itself. >> How is time an outcome of gravity?!? "General relativity shows that gravity is really not a force, but rather a consequence of the fact that space-time is curved due to the distribution of mass and energy."
