Good explanation. In my opinion, space does not contract, but rather the travelling object simply viisits less places the faster it goes. If it had to visit all places between the start and end it would have to visit anifinite number of them (because you can always sub divide between two points), which would take forever. Zenos paradox about the movement of an arrow first highlighted the infinite number of points between any two places. Modern maths makes a pathetic attempt, by inventing the concept of limits (where the crux phrase is 'at infinity', which of course can't happen), to show movement is possible if you draw a line of ink on paper, the ink will not be contigous, and the faster you draw the line, the less places the ink will mark the paper. I think it's the same for spacetime. The faster you go, the less places iyou 'visit. It works the other way too. The faster you go the less points of time you vist, so it seems time contracts. Time dialation is (in my opinion) when points in time are skipped over just like the points in space. 🙂

@nswanberg not moving at all isn't the slowest you can go in space, correct? Extreme curvature of the space you're not moving in also plays a role in how "still" you are to outside observers. I propose you are more still relative to the rest of the universe while you are falling into a black hole, despite the presumption that falling is moving. It isn't in this case -- let me explain. When you swap space and time coordinates is when you're most still in my opinion, as falling towards and reaching the singularity is as inevitable as "falling" into the future in any given moment. So movement towards the singularity in a black hole isn't through 3 dimensional space, but through 1 dimensional time. The singularity IS your future, and there's no way to avoid it. You can move out of its way no more than you can move back in time. So I would say the singularity is the slowest you could move, but what do I know

Wow, I just happened to come across this video and I found the explaination super helpful with such a complex concept (you can tell that I'm not a science major here). The use of interactive graphics really helps guide the viewers to have a better understanding of the talk. But the real genius is how Mr. Arnold breaks the concept down and use simple languages to clarify the complexities of space-time (I'm still not there yet but may be I will someday). STEM students can truly benefit from this type of education. I'll definitely keep following this and hope my granddaughter will benefit from this someday, should she chooses to go into science/engineering. Thank you.

That’s a lot of difficult key concepts packed into one easier to understand video, bravo! 👏

The bigger question revolves around whether spacetime, the foundation of our current physics models, can still be considered the fundamental layer of reality, or if it instead originates from a more foundational underlying structure. While our current models have thrived on the spacetime framework, recent challenges and breakdowns in certain areas have prompted us to question whether spacetime alone can continue to provide a comprehensive explanation.

One thing to always remember is that these questions cannot be answered (at least not without a view of the universe from outside the universe, which we're unlikely to ever get). They're philosophical questions rather than scientific, and they're questions philosophers have been struggling with for as long as humanity has existed.

There are many scientists now seriously considering this. Look up Prof. Donald Hoffman and his work on this.

Excellent video as always. I especially liked you putting a very obvious question 'how can two quantities with different dimensions be equated'. One question: In the video you mentioned that multi dimensional time would allow time loops to exist.

On one hand, this is the closest I've ever come to grasping the concept, so bravo for Arvin. On the other hand, if C is distance/time, then C squared would be distance squared over time squared. Well, I know what a distance squared is (three inches on the sides of a square yields nine square inches), but I can't grasp the meaning of a time squared. What's a square second? This continues to flummox me. Still, it's the clearest demonstration of the concept I've seen so far, and my livelihood doesn't depend on my understanding it, so I'm satisfied for today.

Maybe this won't help you, but a squared second would be something we cannot intuitively understand, as we don't have the practical experience. Said otherwise, in the practical sense, it has no meaning. Like a meter to the fourth, we don't have the practical experience. What we can do is process it analytically, and maybe it's easier to figure out what a fourth dimension of space might be as we already deal with three of them. Other than that, a fourth dimension of space has no practical meaning. Another possible way of looking at it, although again it may not be helpful at all, is to consider acceleration. If velocity is the rate of change of distance per time unit (second) and acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per time unit, then acceleration would be the rate of change of distance per time unit squared (squared second). Or, maybe more properly said, the rate of change, per time unit, of the rate of change, per time unit, of the distance. The analytical meaning(?) here would be that we had to consider twice independent variations in time.

> No one ever seems to bring this up as an explanation for why we experience 3 dimensions Because we don't control the universe. If the universe had chosen to give us 4 spatial dimensions, certainly Maxwell's equations would be meaningless. But intelligent beings in such a universe would simply come up with some other equations that describe their own forces (electromagnetism as we understand it wouldn't exist, but some other force that follows 4D-enabled rules would exist in its place). Of course that's all speculative philosophy. The universe does have three dimensions and our equations do work, so its little more than a thought experiment to imagine higher dimension universes. But the first step to such an exercise is realizing that _everything_ we know would be different - the particles, the forces, and the math we use to describe them. Everything The ones we know of in our 3+1 universe all explicitly require a 3+1 universe and wouldn't work in any other universe. But some other completely different particles and forces (and math) might. People have of course tried to formulate such things, with middling success. There's a general thought that its not possible because we can't make the math work but that in itself is exactly the problem I'm pointing out - just because _we_ can't do it doesn't mean the universe couldn't have. But its very hard for us to separate the idea of a universe that can't exist (based on the fact that it doesn't) from a universe that "can't" exist (based us fallible humans being unable to figure out how to make our equally human mathematics work for it).

The key is understanding 4:40 and 6:40. In space, the *shortest* route is a straight line. In time, the *quickest* route is anything but a straight line, BECAUSE, moving slows down time relative to the traveler themself. It's only misleading if you're assuming slow velocities like walking (it's mathematically still true, just a negligible difference), or more apparently, that the traveler in greater motion meets the non-moving traveler at a later time. They both meet at the same exact time, but one took a longer path through space, and motion through space slows time for that person relative to a stationary observer. The closer you are to the speed of light, the slower time passes for you, relative to a stationary observer. Light itself experiences no time, because it travels at the fastest possible velocity in the universe. This is special relativity. General relativity on the other hand paints the opposite scenario, depicting the slowest possible velocity in the universe. When falling into a blackhole, the dimensions of time and space flip. Instead of 3 dimensions of space, there is only 1, because no matter how fast you're going in any "direction" you'll always end up falling into the singularity of the black hole. It is physically the only location in 3 dimensional space you can head towards, and there's nothing you can do to stop it, which is synonymous with 1 dimensional time. AKA, the future.

Like a photon (light), if you reach lightspeed, you wouldn't see anything, because you would have 0 time to experience during your travels. But, if you're traveling very near the speed of light, according to special relativity, you experience light like ever before. Meaning a person in a car traveling near the speed of light would actually see their headlights shine and illuminate what's in front of them like ever before. Light is the same for all observers, stationary or not. It seems unintuitive, but it's experimentally proven! It would look different, though. As you're traveling near light speed, light coming in your direction, aka the universe and objects you see would be blue shifted. The same way cosmic expansion causes redshift by expanding the space and thereby light waves traveling in space, light waves from behind you would be redshifted. It's called the doppler affect, and is the same as sirens 🚨 sounding louder as they approach, but quieter after they pass you, even if they're the same distance from you at both moments. Faster than light speeds is when you start seeing yourself in the past and such! But that's a theoretically impossible velocity through space.

If spacetime can expand and contact, the forces contained in it could also be larger or smaller. Perhaps explaining dark matter and energy

Some physicists think it's possible that the reason gravity appears so much weaker than the other fundamental forces is because there are more than three spatial dimensions.

I like that you point out that 'time' on the surface of earth is slower compared to an identical clock in unaccelerated space. However, gravity doesnt 'curve' spacetime, it pinches it in to the core of the gravity well (the earth in this case). Any 'curves' or orbits have to do with the other object's speed relative to the earth's gravity well. Light gets bent very little as it races by our dimple of a gravity well. As a contrast, a person standing on the surface has their curved spaacetime starting at the top of their head, out their feet and running straight to the core. Our way there is blocked and that's why we feel 'weight' The way to the center of the core is blocked because matter under acceleration stratifies by density with the heavy dense stuff at the bottom and the light atmosspheric gasses at the top. What would have been a nice touch in the video would be to further the explanation that time is fastest in unaccelerated spacetime, it's slower on the surface of the earth with our meager 9.8m/s2 acceleration and it is most definitely slowest at the core. assumptions of Newtonian weightlessness at the core are not considering this reality. The densest elements migrate to the core, while gasses go up. Acceleration is greatest at the core and time is slowest.

Does space*time have the same tension and compression resistant force? Does it have a quantitative force in it at neutral rest?

Nobody has constructed the definition of time, therefore we cannot apply ''time'' to physical bodies and using this enigmatic a ''time'' is an erroneous approach to explanation in this video. Clocks do not measure ''time''. I repeat; a clock is not a mechanism to measure time at all. Clocks do not measure anything; there is no sentient contraption in the World that measures ''time'' or feels ''time''. Therefore, by squaring '''time'' or bringing it to any power is meaningless. Space on the other hand has a physical meaning and by marrying space with time we are making a mistake by combining a ''body'' with emptiness. Time, as we know it, is not measurable but rather experienced psychologically. But I believe that we can find it ''somewhere'' externally where mind and time meet half-way. And even by relating time in terms of psychology, time cannot be explained in conveying words of what it is and when somethig was, is or will be. Until we define time the usage of this ''entity' as a dimension is wrong because time may have constituents or have a force by not being a force itself which makes it static. Time is static entropy is not.

When we speak of _space curviture_ it seems to me that this implies higher dimensionalty. That is, how can you curve something if you don't have at least one extra dimension to curve it in? One of the seminal books I grew up with was Flatland. Which explored a people constrained to a 2D plane. That plane may very well be curved, but the Flatlanders would never know it. But we, from our 3D perspective, could plainly see that.

A space can be curve, meaning it may have curvature properties, without requiring the existence of further dimensions. However, it may eventually be simpler to describe it if one does consider further dimensions. I mean, what's so special about orthogonal straight lines but their simplicity of use by our minds? The issue is that the concepts we use to describe reality should not be confused with reality itself. In that sense, Earth may very well be the center of the Universe, it's a possible but highly inconvenient description that would only go against the Occam's Razor Principle.

I'd like to point out that Modelling Causality as a Poisson Process (events on a time line w/ exponentially distributed inter arrival times) we are transforming from the Bayesian into an exponential form of causality (np=t*lambda), e^mean*variance and plotting 'open point' on the timeline allows for a least Paths solution to A QM Model of Causality I refer to as the 'Temple Model of the QM of Causality'. The open point on the timeline represents the 'Temple' State Space Model itself. It allows the 'user' to apply the same exponential transform to the 'other parts' of the model. We can manipulate causality even w/ a pair of dice.

Wonderful explanation!!!

General relativity and quantum mechanics will never be combined until we realize that they take place at different moments in time. Because causality has a speed limit (c) every point in space where you observe it from will be the closest to the present moment. When we look out into the universe, we see the past which is made of particles (GR). When we try to look at smaller and smaller sizes and distances, we are actually looking closer and closer to the present moment (QM). The wave property of particles appears when we start looking into the future of that particle. It is a probability wave because the future is probabilistic. Wave function collapse happens when we bring a particle into the present/past. GR is making measurements in the predictable past. QM is trying to make measurements of the probabilistic future.

A "predictable past" is an oxymoron. Maybe you mean the "observable" past? There is no such thing as "the present moment" because your present is not my present. The differences may be imperceptible but they are nevertheless measurable. Every observer has a unique world-line because of "locality" (two particles may not occupy the same space at the same time). Quantum observations are never "instantaneous" but are measurements of things that already happened.

I do wonder a little about the extra time dimensions sometimes. It seems permissable for string theorists to posit extra spatial dimensions that loop back on themselves on small scales. So why not posit extra time dimensions on very small and/or fast scales? anti particles already kinda look like they go back in time from a certain perspective. I know there is so much I'm missing in this conjecture but would appreciate what avenues to go down to understand why it wouldn't be feasible.

Having two time-like coordinates will make it so that energy is no longer conserved, and you will never be able to get two things to stand still (be at rest) with respect to each other.

I can't find videos about the contraction of spacetime. Recently, the confirmation of gravitational waves suggests the possibility of manipulating spacetime to adjust the speed of light in contracted or expanded spaces, something similar to creating another dimension of space within space itself. This could allow the creation of repulsive gravity or antigravity, although the creation of negative mass still seems improbable. However, it now appears possible to produce a form of negative spacetime. I suggest investigating the idea of generating gravitational waves with alternating momentums between positive and negative. By harnessing the energy of one of these momentums, virtual particles could be generated, resulting in the contraction of spacetime. Additionally, it's also possible to consider the idea of colliding a particle on the surface of a heavy material that could generate some momentum in space. I believe that waves within a heavy material propagate more slowly, which could alter the symmetry of space outside of this material.

Your Minkowski graph of the math of spacetime is a powerful teaching tool. I wonder if space or time can exist at all without each other. If there was no time, how could a place exist? If there was no place, would time have meaning? Are time and space inseparable? 🕳

I always thought about that. I came to the conclusion that no, they can't be separated, but at the same time, space is more important and central than Time. Time is a consequence of energy. To reach that conclusion, I used my naked imagination: Imagine you have a superpower: you can freeze everything to the quantum level. Now I want you to freeze this universe completely, until no electron can move, no virtual particle pops up in the quantum field forever. In this scenario, you'd still have space, wouldn't you? With your mind's eye, you can still see the oceans and forest and planets completely static. But time would be gone because it would literally never be capable of passing. Now, try to begin to imagine anything to conceptualize time without space. You can't even begin. You can't even think or imagine a superpower or anything. A vaccum? That's would be a space. A true vacuum? That would be space again. A black universe devoid of anything? Still a location in the grand scheme of things. So space is the basis and time is the property.

Así, el tiempo es el intervalo que transcurre entre dos eventos. Espacio es el ámbito que habitamos. Propongo un nuevo término designar tres cosas fundamentales, que no tienen definición, es el término EXTENSIÓN, para esas tres magnitudes fundamentales, o magnitudes dimensionales fundamentales, ya que de la EXTENSIÓN, se derivan, el espacio, el tiempo y la masa. Que son tres cosas extensas. Porque pueden existir en el Universo y podemos referirnos a ellas como existentes. Porque los podemos estudiar porque muestran propiedades diferenciables, de una con respecto de las otras. Porque las podemos medir usando instrumentos diferentes. Porque acceden, de alguna manera a ser percibidas. Porque podemos cuantificarlas y los cálculos.que hacemos son congruentes. Pero que nos intrigan cuando tratamos de verlas individualmente; es decir, darles calidad absoluta de existencia. Porque, aunque no se haya dicho, la masa también es relativa al espacio y al tiempo, ya que incrementa con la velocidad o energía cinética. Incluso, se origina de la velocidad misma, se genera a partir de bosones que corren a la velocidad de la luz. Entonces la EXTENSIÓN, puede asumir el papel arquetípico o primordial, con respecto de esas tres modalidades de entes diferenciados pero relativísticamente asociados.

When you say, my now is "now" - what does that even mean, because there is no way for you to communicate in the very instant that you say the word "now." Even when you are talking to a person across the room, the "nows" are different for the two individuals because it takes a small amount of time for you to see the light reflecting off of them. This does not make any practical difference because the time difference is so small that you do not notice it. But on cosmological scales, this communication speed limit makes a difference in what you can possibly describe as a "now."

There's certainly nothing that has already happened tomorrow or at any time after 'now'... everything that is perceived is from a time in the past from any observers point of view, but that again doesn't mean it hasn't already had many more interactions already between the time you see it at, and the time it is at when you are seeing it. It's actually observable... light travels about 1 foot in 1 nano second. Computer clocks tick at 1Ghz+... 1Ghz is 1 cycle per nano second... so every N feet of distance is also N nanoseconds in the past from your point of view... When dealing with a hardware device in the 90's I got to learn just how long a nanosecond is... putting the card on 6 inch extender on an ISA bus delays the signal about a nanosecond (since electric signals really only go about half the speed of light maybe more, i've seen more recent approximations that it's 70-80% of the speed of light, but given the amount of capacitance a signal has to fill before a signal can actually be detected 50% is good enough; that short distance started causing it to fail on certain motherboards. But certainly every signal that went 6 inches was perceived from a ( it's not 'now' at that point it's a past now that the signal was generated, before it is observable at a time after it was generated... but still that card is generating signals in the 'now' that will be seen later).

Nicely put, although it should be mentioned that c equivales to the speed of massless particles, not especially photons. If would happen that photons have mass, then their speed wouldn't be c.

I view time in 3 dimensions as well, but each point represents a single energetic state of the entire 3D space. This means time not only goes forward and backwards, but also sideways and up/down. Sideways can represent different versions of one dimension, while up/down represent parallel realities. What people assume as time being a single 4th dimension of space is only because of the assumption that there is only 1 real timeline, what one experiences within space. This is why formulas based on a single variable "time" works because the formulas only apply to a single linear point of spacetime. One couldn't easily validate the results outside of this one experienced timeline. But that is an assumption. What people call "string theory" can be encapsulated by the idea of a 2-dimensional representation of time, but it ignores the alternative version concept of each individual timeline as the 3rd dimension of time (the choices not taken by one version, is taken by an alternative version of the same reality). When space "bends" time, all that means is that the rate of change in space is a relationship to the rate of change in time, meaning the 3-dimension of time is itself encapsulated in a higher dimension of something related to time. When you accelerate in space, that means the number of units of time that changes is done quicker in the higher dimension of "experience of time" or "rate of change". From my perspective, that higher dimension above time is consciousness (it encapsulates these dimensions of awareness). The awareness of change, which is a function of time, is why the perceived change in space/time is relative. It depends on the point of view. Without different points of views, there would not be general relativity.

I've seen countless videos and explanations on this topic. But I always fall back on thinking that time as a dimension is a weird way of interpreting what we see. Hear me out. I don't think time is a dimension at all, but an emergent phenomena from "light speed" particles interacting in space. There is only space, and in space there are particles moving in a constant way (light speed, C) and interacting with each other. These interactions are what time actually is, there is no dimension to it. The reason we see time flow differently when moving relative to something else, is because when a bunch of particles all move in the same direction, there is less particle to particle movement. Because particle speed is constant, C, it leaves less possibility for interacting movement against each other. And that lessened interaction between particles causes time to flow slower. For example: We have 2 pairs of particles (4 particles in total) stationary in space. Every interaction between the particles is one tick of time. Now a pair of particles starts moving away from the other pair at 0.9 C, while the other pair stays stationary. The moving pair now has less possibility of interacting with each other (compared to the stationary pair) because it has already "allocated" 0.9 C to moving away, and therefore not interacting as much. When the particle pair then compare time with each other again, the moving pair will have had way less interactions and therefore time has moved much slower, but the stationary pair has had more interaction so time moved "faster" for that pair. This is also why we consider photons to have "infinite time", because photons are just single particles moving 1 C (light speed), leaving zero room for interaction until it collides with something.

Appreciate you, Arvin.

Your analogy is revealing: we do have Space and Time because we built equipment, to define Lab frames (Buildings, roads etc.) and clocks to define Time (synced with satellites etc.) , allowing to fit a Mathematical Model (R3xR), which needed "stretching time" and compress distance (Lorentz transformations) and adjustment in the presence of the real, Natural "frames": matter (GR). After 70s we started understanding it is a Network (Quantum Computing); it became apparent it is Adaptive (QFT interactions, Chemistry etc.). But Classical Physics still needs it (S-T). Otherwise the building "pixel of Universe", the leggo block for the Universe, is the Hydrogen atom: 3-quark directions (RGB) to define local Space and a spectrum of frequencies, as a metronome to keep the beat (Pythagoras would have liked this). (see Yewbzee too :). Now, due to Gauge Theory, we understand how 3D-Space and Time emerge, and "look as if related" (2x2=3+1: SU(2) "thing").

thanku sir for you only we could able to lean these things

This guy made me love physics again!

While it's simple to just say "large dimensions" to exclude the compact dimensions of things like string theory, it really raises the question of how spatial dimensions can come in a variety of "sizes".

Thank You!

So two questions: 1. How is Fermat's principle of least time to the discussion of the time elapsed between distance traveled between two points? and 2: I can move up or down, back or forth, forward or backward, but I can only move in one direction in time. So what makes time a different dimension?

I know Chris "The Brain" said in his video on space time, "Chapter 5: What is Time? Special Relativity, Inertia, Wormholes, Anti-Gravity, Time Travel, and FTL" That the relationship between space and time were contridicular, and that there is an absolute zero velocity that we should build a unit to find.

Amazing explanation!

Now having this curved time makes sense for reference frames that are not co-moving together. Like if we are in London and want to travel to New York, we could just float a while until the earth brought New York to where London was and land. However that only makes sense if we are floating with respect to the day/night cycle, but are still traveling around the sun with the earth. If we were to just float and have no movement, we would quickly find ourselves in a void between galaxies. So it would seem that the frame of reference would need to be established. And that would be what we might seem to call “perspective.” And holding the speed of light constant seems fine. But can energy be conserved, if time is not constant? If we send information via light, but you are traveling away from the source the light would be redshifted. Thus the wavelength is longer, meaning a lower frequency and therefore the energy of the signal would appear to be weaker. However we could also assume that the light has the same amount of energy, and that time has been stretched. Meaning a second when it left might now be 1.2 or 2 seconds. Just some thoughts…not sure the answers, but it seems to relate to how transforming 1 variable to be constant changes the shapes of the other variables…

0:20 Spacetime is not just a background. It's not a matter of having painting colors with no canvas, it's really about recognizing that colors and canvas are really the same thing, and neither can exist without the other. At the largest scales, matter tells spacetime how to bend and deform. At the quantum scale, wrinkles in the fabric are what makes matter emerge. Together, the two theories complete the circle, which is the fundamental reason why unification efforts have failed thus far. There's nothing to unify. The two theories are different ways to look at the underlying reality. If we want to understand black holes better, we need to understand what exactly quantum mechanics is telling us, and not just "shut up and calculate". We desperately need an onthological basis for quantum mechanics, just like we have one for GR.

As you said, how the time and space can be the same while the units are different. At the same time you have also said that the concept of time is developed by us humans. In my local context the time is calculated into the distance of the sun's movement in the sky and there are around several units of time within 24 hours. For example the smallest unit of time is 'badany' means a step. Jill means when the sun rises. Pari means when the sun moves up in the sky around an hour after it rises. And papan means the mid day. In this way, the time is just the same as the distance.
