Time and Electricity

Could the passing of time and electricity have a correlation for living beings?

 

I have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe you want to tell us what your idea/concept is so that we can discuss it. As it is, you've posed a virtually unanswerable yes/no question. It's a poor way to start a thread.

 

Yes. Everything affects everything. Farting in China eventually makes it's way to Africa via both random molecules and perhaps fart propulsion effecting the spin of the earth... perhaps an electric jolt passing though the farter invigorates the gas to come out, pushing the earth's rotation ever soo slightly, thus affecting time and adjusting everything for living beings.

no more beer for me tonight.

 

A fart in China stops aquafox from drinking. Yes, I do believe that all things are connected on some level.

 

E=m*c^2

Energy is electricity. The speed of light (c) is what we base time off of. (How far does light travel in one second, one minute, one year...)

That is the physics answer. The biology/chemistry answer would look at the electrons that make up your cells, brain waves, and the chemicals that have to interact.

 

You misunderstand the concept of time. What humans (and perhaps other organic forms) perceive as time has absolutely nothing to do with the physical world of electricity and physical time. We perceive time as the accumulation of events; time in the physical sense is a dimension the same as distance and intimately connected to distance.

Electricity an expression of a fundamental physical force in nature. The 2 are absolutely uncorrelated.

 

I think aquafox has come closest to capturing the intended definition of "passing" from the OP. Those of you who've met me know that I crap uranium and fart lightening.

and this, people, is why posting a poorly worded OP is such a bad idea. The village idiot gets to chime in and turn the thread into something it wasn't. And there's no shortage of village idiots here.

 

It's nice to be recognized once in a while

 

"Time is natures way of preventing everything to happen at once." credited to John Archibald Wheeler explained vividly by Terry Pratchett.

 

Ah yes another classic post that threw chum out into the 'village idiot' waters.
Speaking of time.....It's Five o'clock somewhere.

 

Time: the interval between cause and effect.
Just sayin'.

 

alfred north whitehead once wrote something like human beings have time; nature has passage. passage is not the same as time--it's more a way of designating succession of events which is the basis of a sense of time in human beings, but that (time) as a function of scale and socialization (time is a highly variable function when you move culture to culture or when you move backward in history to the era(s) prior to railroads, which were the main driver in the standardization of time measurements)....there's likely a relationship between the waveforms and their rhythms that comprise, from certain scalar viewpoints, the living systems that are human beings and the sense of the rhythm of time, but even that is subject to social-imaginary constructs (e.g. linear time comprised of abstract, equivalent now-points that follow each other endlessly-like).

btw passage would be amenable to a myriad other possible modalities as a function of different scales/complexities of organization (i don't know how to make a less abstract statement)...different umwelten as uexhill liked to call them. he wrote some cool things about the world of ticks and flies. interesting deductive experiments. but i digress.

 

I have trouble with the statement, "energy is electricity".
No trouble with electricity is (a form of) energy.
