In physics, the definition of time is simple— time is change, or the interval over which change occurs. It is impossible to know that time has passed unless something changes. The amount of time or change is calibrated by comparison with a standard. The SI unit for time is the second, abbreviated s.
1 sty 2014 · Time dilation is one of the three pillars of Special Relativity and the dimension of time is the fourth leg of General Relativity's ubiquitous space-time. What is it that theoreticians are...
7 cze 2024 · What is time, exactly? Physicists define time as the progression of events from the past to the present into the future. Basically, if a system is unchanging, it is timeless. Time can be considered to be the fourth dimension of reality, used to describe events in three-dimensional space.

Time's arrow. So we know time most likely started during the Big Bang. But there is one nagging question that remains: what exactly is time? To unpack this question, we have to look at the...

TIME. The standard unit of time, 1 Second (s), used to be defined in terms of the time it took for the earth to rotate about its axis. Since the earth’s rotation is now known to be slowing down, that is hardly a good standard. Instead the standard second is defined in terms of the vibrations of the cesium–133 atom.
