I've always wondered this. Let's say we're not limited by the type of vibration, e.g. if choppy vibration doesn't constitute continuous movement, then some sort of oscillating vibration.
DavidReishi said:Years ago I asked a professor if we could travel forward in time using some kind of device rotating around an axis. He said no, because in practice the force created by such movement around an axis would destroy everything.
Me too. Why'd it get changed? Is oscillation-type vibration not really vibration?A.T. said:I liked the original thread title better.

DavidReishi said:would you say the same about oscillatory vibration...if such a thing exists? (I'm imagining a range of motion virtually invisible to someone looking on.)
DavidReishi said:If the motion is motion enough to cause any time dialation, then wouldn't how much time dialates be a function of nothing other than the speed of that motion?
DavidReishi said:I'm not sure I follow. If the motion is motion enough to cause any time dialation, then wouldn't how much time dilates be a function of nothing other than the speed of that motion?
A nuclear-powered oscillator is a device that uses the energy from nuclear reactions to generate a regular and precise oscillation. Time dilation, which is the slowing down of time due to relative motion or gravity, can occur when an object is moving at a high speed or in a strong gravitational field. Since a nuclear-powered oscillator generates a high amount of energy, it can potentially affect time by causing time dilation.
This would depend on the specific situation and conditions. If the nuclear-powered oscillator is creating a strong gravitational field, time would slow down due to the increased gravity. However, if the oscillator is moving at a high speed relative to an observer, time would actually speed up due to the effects of time dilation.
The amount of time dilation would depend on the strength of the gravitational field or the speed of the oscillator. In general, the closer an observer is to the oscillator or the stronger the gravitational field, the more significant the time dilation would be. However, for everyday situations and distances, the effects of time dilation from a nuclear-powered oscillator would be negligible.
No, the effects of time dilation from a nuclear-powered oscillator would not be noticeable to humans in everyday situations. The amount of time dilation would be too small for humans to perceive, and it would only be significant in extreme circumstances, such as being very close to a powerful nuclear-powered oscillator or in a strong gravitational field.
No, time dilation from a nuclear-powered oscillator does not pose any direct risks or dangers. However, the technology used in nuclear-powered oscillators can be dangerous if not handled properly. Additionally, the effects of time dilation could potentially impact the accuracy of time-sensitive technologies, but this would only be a concern in highly specialized and precise systems.
