It has been demonstrated numerous times that the velocity of a clock affects the length of its second. What is the velocity of the cesium clock on Earth? Zero by definition. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

Surprisingly you offer to neither show, nor tell what happens... which leaves us with your statement: I can just imagine attempting logical measurements ...

This gives a "glimpse" of what I mean, the above was vague ... http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasc...9/phy99194.htm Given the reference (a painfully pretentious website with as much armchair theory offered as in this thread), you must have misspelled vogue. The forced argument (a strawman at that) of motion ceasing went out with fringe topped surries. Now THAT (motion? what motion?) is vague in the extreme given there are a considerable number of dynamics that occur at the 0°K atomic scale. Are we suppose that electrons in their orbits at 1°µK will collapse into the nucleus (permenantly frozen into inaction) with the final chilling tweak? What a larf! These akademik arguments only need the added stipulation that you have to exhibit an absolute zero beer cooler that will hold the temperature throughout the Super Bowl. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

From: http://www.calphysics.org/zpe.html "Zero-point energy is the energy that remains when all other energy is removed from a system. This behaviour is demonstrated by, for example, liquid helium. As the temperature is lowered to absolute zero, helium remains a liquid, rather than freezing to a solid, owing to the irremovable zero-point energy of its atomic motions." -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

There are other entropic processes that can be calibrated against the cesium. Hi Dave, You have been snookered into answering a complaint manufactured (as usual) from the misapplication of relationships. The resonance of Cesium is not a function of time. Time is not a function of Cesium's resonance (the incorrect correlation drawn, to which you are responding). There is no dependency between the two. It is our dependency in our usage of one to measure the other. The sophism above is much like saying sound did not exist before someone was close enough to hear the falling tree. The excitation of gas molecules we call sound existed long before the appearance of the first amoeba, much less apes in falling trees. Both sound and time are phenomenological terms for simple and rational physical processes that exist without dependence on us. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |
