My theory of everything

[spectrum]

I have a lot more written but basically its based just explaining how entropy = time and using logic to go backwards in entropy down this path until the beginning of entropy. Its impossible to go before that but this logic should hold true from that point until now.

 

This probably seems obvious to a physicist or the some math experts but I never see it explained this way.

 

In my mind I'm picturing a 3D fractal where each end point is the highest point of entropy for that specific system. When you zoom out, you see that each everything you were looking at came from something related, but simpler.

 

This is easy to picture for something like evolution but harder for physics. But regardless, the math always holds.

 

So, if you accept that somehow there was a beginning point of energy with the minimum amount of entropy possible, then the rest just all follows based upon the logic of the systems that are naturally created and stacked upon each other.

 

So, theory of everything = A minimal point of entropy + logic

 

Thoughts?

Not sure I buy this. Units of entropy are energy per temperature and units of time are time. This equation you've presented here isn't dimensionally sound.

 

Maybe the bigger issue is that what predictions can you make based on your idea? What you've written here is a good story, but isn't very scientific because of the lack of specific testable objective predictions.

It is thought that entropy and the arrow of time are deeply related. This is the so-called thermodynamic arrow of time: in an isolated system entropy tends to increase with time. This is just the second law of thermodynamics and gives us a preferred direction of time.

 

For example, if I showed you a film of an egg smashed on the floor suddenly rising up to my hand and reforming you just know that I have shown you the film in rewind. The configuration of a smashed egg on the floor has higher entropy than the configuration of an egg in my hand. Loosely there is more disorder with a smashed egg than a perfectly formed egg in my hand. This should make you suspicious of my film and tell you that it is probably being played backwards. We can have seeming local violations of the second law, but that is due to not considering the isolated system properly. It could be that the film is being played forwards and that somewhere else is getting more disordered in the process, you just did not take that into account properly.

 

 

Anyway, it is true that change is how we "see" time, however this does not mean that change, motion or entropy are the same thing as time. But they may give us an arrow of time.

My question is does time change? Or just simply the entropy change? If time changes, then it shares the same characteristics with entropy.

My question is does time change?

Time is relative, if that is what you are asking? Different observers will generally not agree on the duration between events.

[Nicholas Kang]

If time is relative, does it share the same characteristic with entropy?

[ajb]

If time is relative, does it share the same characteristic with entropy?

Like what? Always increasing?

[Nicholas Kang]

Maybe and some other characteristics you can think of.
