Since 2 observers in different inertial frames won't agree on the rate that time passes, I don't think time can be called linear.  I think sequential is a better term since observers will agree in the order that related events occur

As an athiest, I have to say I don't believe that.  Ironical, ain't it?

For example one circular sector of unit circle has area a/2, other circular sector has area Pi/4 - a/2

What do you mean by a sector?  The area of a quadrant of the unit circle is Pi/4 and the area of the unit circle is Pi.  What are these 2 sectors and why the relationship between the 2?

Your speed is only zero wrt  the centre of gravity of the field.

You are in motion wrt all other points.

Anything  to that?

It sounds like you are confusing yourself on this point.  Look at it like gravity is trying to accelerate you towards the center of the earth but the earths surface is holding you back.  IOW your weight is the force you are exerting on the surface of the earth which is your mass times the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2).

Hope that helps.

So the area in question is 1/2 of the circle?  

48 minutes ago, DimaMazin said:

So that would mean that Pi/4 is the total area 'a'.  Since Pi r^2 = area of a circle, Pi r^2 = Pi/4 or r = 0.5.

Is that correct?  Or are these areas small circles in the larger circle?

You ca't have acceleration  without implied motion can you?

If two people are in the same reference frame, the only way they can develop relative motion is for at least one of the people to accelerate.  I am trying to answer in a way that does not get into semantics and have the answer to a simple question become confusing.

it does not experience acceleration yet still ticks at a different rate...

Is that because the two clocks are still in relative motion?

Yes

54 minutes ago, geordief said:

And so the only time they tick at the same rate is  when they  are both at rest and also experience no (different?) acceleration?

Both clocks tick at the same rate if they are at rest relative to each other.  IOW for an observer a moving clock ticks slower.

I assume when you say acceleration you are referring to a gravitational potential since one clock accelerating would mean that the clocks were in relative motion.

If 2 clocks are not in relative motion to each other but are in 2 different gravitational potentials then the clocks will also tick at different rates.  So there are 2 kinds of time dilation, relative motion time dilation (SR) and gravitational time dilation (GR).

You may make money you may lose money.  The stock market is a chaotic system and as such it is not able to be modelled to the point that making money in the short term is a sure bet.  Good luck.

Yes, there all different types of people.

Most of the stereotypical nerd types in my company usually worked in research or modelling, most people who are good at math and science have high paying jobs in my experience.

Really, the mainstream silenced Tesla?  It seems like the mainstream honoured Tesla by naming the unit of the magnetic field density a tesla.

what is your measure of truth?

We are discussing science here not truth.  No one who understands science thinks that theories are truth.  A theory is the best description of some aspect of the universe.  Newton's theory of gravity and the theory of general relativity both describe gravity in a coherent and accurate way (one is a bit more accurate), neither one is truth, they theories.

anyway in Your opinion what would be natural substitution for vaccine immunization, maybe lepton tea!?

I don't think there is a natural substitution, evidence to the contrary would be welcomed.  A healthy lifestyle promotes a strong immune system, but that does not come even remotely close to the benefits of vaccinations.

no this is on contrary not scientific, how should be skepticism offered if there is no place for alternative theories!?

There is a place, it is called Speculations.

Because you speculated that CBC would protect against covid like a vaccine.

It seems, you are missing the point, CBD is not an alternative to vaccines.

I have to disagree, I see people judging the merits of your ideas, not you.  No one here knows you, how could we possibly judge you.  We can judge your ideas because these are presented here.

I am not complaining but in the way how mainstream theories are imposed as finate simply they are becoming scientific dogmas!

Glad your not complaining since theories are neither finite nor dogma, so that would be a waste of time!

Speculative subforum how is piled with topics from all subforums, simply is not usefull as empirical recheck of the mainstream theories, I mean I am not somehow against them but just say without skepticism for what kind of science we talk jere, elitist or arogant, instead Science should be open constantly for requestioning and reinterpretation, puting all alternative theories in bulk in one bunker just above the recycle bin think is just wrong ...

This is just a forum, this is not the home seat of the scientific method, empirical checks of the mainstream are done in academia.  It makes sense to keep the speculations, musings and guesses in one area.  The rest of the forum can be devoted to the discussion of actual science, this is after all a science forum.  If you feel that discussing science on a science forum is elitist then I suggest you go to other forums that are primarily for alternative science.

The idea is to have an isolated proton without an electron, and to ionize an electron entangled with the proton.

What?

Is this homework?  Or possibly one of my reoccurring nightmares?

I asked what PNP was and your reply was: 

PNP = N = p * j = x * y.

So based on that I stopped reading any more of your post.  I am not sure about your math knowledge, but your english knowledge leaves a lot to be desired.

We have been patiently waiting 6 years for that very question.
