Zeno's paradoxes of motion in physics

[Johnny5454]

if zeno's paradoxes are true and motion is impossible, then how does an electron reach the electrostatic field of another electron?

Motion is possible. Your fingers moved as you typed your message, did they not?

False premise. That was easy...

Yeah. I'm not sure what the problem is here. They aren't true.

I believe it was the invention/discovery of instantaneous velocity that solved them.

His paradoxen are based on the assumption that, if one measures the velocity of an object at an instant in time (i.e. duration = zero), one must get velocity of zero. Not true.

None of the Zeno's paradox is in fact a paradox. He simply created infinite series from simple situations, but the mathematics about limits was evolved enough to solve the problems he had created.

As several posters have already remarked, they aren't.

Since the OP question is based on a mistaken premise, this thread is closed.
