Loading...We have shown throughout "The Imagineer’s Chronicles" there is significant observational evidence supporting the existence four *spatial* dimensions.
One of these observations is how gravitational energy is propagated.
Modern physicists define the propagation of all forms of energy in terms of an interaction between the particle properties of mass. For example, the expansive energy of a gas is defined in terms of the velocity of the gas particles contained in the gas and the energy of a rockets engine is defined in terms of the velocity of gas particles as they exit the rocket engine.
Isaac Newton summed up the forces and energies associated with particle interaction in his third law: "All forces in the universe occur in equal but oppositely directed pairs".
However, the propagation of gravitational energy does not appear to follow this law of particle interaction because of its attractive properties. If gravitational energy were propagated by a particle interaction, those particles would have to originate from the mass itself. Therefore, according to Newton’s third law when it interacted with another mass its energy would be directed away from that mass not towards it.
This and the fact the "gravitation" or the particle many physicists believe is responsible for the propagation of gravitational energy has not been observed even with the advancement in detection technology suggests the existence of a continuous dimensional surface to explain its causality.
This is one of the reason why many physicists assume the propagation of gravitational energy is a result of a physical curvature in a continuous space-time metric defined by the General Theory of Relativity even though it has some observational creditability issues.
The most significant is that time is not observed or perceive as matter or space but as an irreversible physical, chemical, and biological change in physical space. In other words, time is not perceived to have any physical properties. Therefore, how can they justify assuming that gravity is a result of a physical curvature in a space-time metric caused by a physical interaction of time with the spatial dimension when they have never observed it to have any physical properties.
The article "Defining energy?" Nov. 26, 2007 showed that that it is more consistent with observations to define gravitational and all other forms of energy in terms of a displacement or curvature in a continuous "surface" of a three-dimensional space manifold with respect to a fourth *spatial* dimensions than it is to define it in terms of space-time dimension
The observation that the energy contained in systems is related to distance not time is one of them.
For example, the energy in a system appears to be independent of time because the energy of water in a dam and the velocity or distance an object travels per unit of time remains constant no matter how much time has passed unless it is acted upon by some outside force.
This would suggest the gravitational energy contained in all systems is related a curvature in a surface of a three dimensional space manifold with respect to a fourth *spatial* dimensions instead of one in a four-dimensional space time mabecause the quantity of energy contained in it does not appear to be effected by a change in time but only by a change in a distance.
Granted the power or force an energy source can generate is related to the rate or time required for the dissipation the energy in a system however, the total quantity of energy in a closed gravitational system has never observed to be effected by the passage of time.
Therefore, it is hard to justify defining gravitational energy in terms of a time or space-time manifold when there is absolutely no observations to support it while there are in terms of a four *spatial* dimension manifold.
Additionally as was shown in the article "Why is energy quantized?" Oct 4, 2007 that it is possible derive the quantum properties of mass and energy in terms of a resonant system or "structure" generated by a matter wave moving on a "surface" of a three-dimensional space manifold with respect to a fourth *spatial* dimension. This indicates defining gravitational energy in terms of the continuous properties four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time gives one the ability to understand and define the quantum characteristics of space and gravitational forces in terms of a common mechanism.
This suggests that it may be more consistent with observations to define the gravitational energy in terms of a continuous in four-dimensional *spatial* metric than defining it in terms of either a particle interaction or space-time metric.
