Blog 20181128 Why does matter always contain other matter in motion?
Abhishek
asked this question. Here are my answers and his follow-ups:
[GB:
For the same reason that a balloon contains matter inside to resist the matter
outside--univironmental determinism, remember?]
Abhi:
Then
what would happen if all forms of matter were not in motion?
[GB:
There would be no universe.]
Abhi:
But
why? Besides, when Einstein said that nothing can travel faster than light, he
put an upper limit on maximum velocity in the universe i.e. 299,792,458 m/s.
But what he said was actually wrong because faster than light is possible and
there is no upper limit on maximum velocity in the universe. Similarly when you
say that matter must be in motion, you are putting a lower limit on minimum
velocity in the universe i.e. velocity of matter must be greater than 0 m/s and
never equal to it. So it may be possible that this may also be equally wrong
because there may not actually be any lower limit on minimum velocity in the
universe just the same way there is no upper limit on maximum velocity in the
universe. Can you please look deeply into the matter?
[GB:
Look at the balloon example again. For the balloon to keep
its shape, it simply must have enough pressure inside (submicrocosms in motion)
to counteract the pressure outside (supermicrocosms in motion). This is true
for all microcosms (things). Decrease the pressure inside and the microcosm implodes;
decrease the pressure outside and microcosm explodes. The velocities of the
submicrocosms and supermicrocosms are secondary.
By using
the analog for sound in air, I have speculated that short-range travel of
aether particles might occur at velocities 50% greater than what the medium produces
for long-range travel. If you have a reference for faster than light travel, I
would like to read it.
The
reason c appears as an upper limit on velocity is because that is the
velocity characteristic of wave motion through the aether medium. All media
have a characteristic for wave velocity (e.g., air transmits sound at 343 m/s).
Particle accelerators cannot exceed c because they use electromagnetic
wave motion to perform the acceleration. Also, the aether medium is filled with
aether particles that provide resistance to the motion of other particles.
Sorry, but to say there are velocities less than 0 makes no
sense. On the other hand, you could say there are infinitely small velocities in
the same way we can approach absolute zero, but never reach it. That is an experimental
fact that provides support both for the Eighth Assumption of Science, infinity
(The universe is infinite, both in the microcosmic and macrocosmic directions)
and for the Fourth Assumption of Science, inseparability (Just as there is no
motion without matter, so there is no matter without motion).]
