Time, Temp & Movement: Amitai's Question

[shameny]

Hallo
I was wondering if anyone could answer a question I had for some time.
I was thinking about the similarities between time and movement when I have established a some what of a definition to time: the advancement of the overall reactions in a system. I have pondered since then, if my definition is accurate, is there a difference between the "speed" of time between two systems with different temperatures? If anyone has a clew please inform me this question has been on my mind for a long time

Thank you
amitai

What about an electron in an orbital around a proton? This system can be at zero temperature. An ensemble of such systems "looks" very different at non-zero temperature, where there is a different probability of finding an atom in a each energy state.

In other words, the temperature of the ensemble (but not of a single atom) is well defined. However, there is no sense in which the hotter ensemble moves "faster" than the colder one. They are very different.

Hello Amitai, thank you for sharing your thoughts and question. It's an interesting concept to think about the relationship between time and movement. Your definition of time as the advancement of overall reactions in a system is a unique perspective. As for your question about the speed of time being affected by different temperatures in different systems, it's a complex topic and there are different theories and explanations. Some argue that time is relative and can be affected by factors such as gravity and velocity. Others believe that time is constant and cannot be influenced by external factors. It's a fascinating topic to explore and I suggest doing some research and reading on the subject to gain a better understanding. Thank you for sparking this thought-provoking conversation.
