Time as a Philosophical and Practical Tool
Ka'idar Dangantaka da kuma Falaki sun nuna lokaci ba wai kawai a matsayin wani abu mai rikitarwa ba, har ma a matsayin kayan aiki mai mahimmanci don warware asirin duniya.
Philosophical Implications
Ka'idojin Einstein suna da zurfin ma'anar falsafa. Ra'ayin cewa lokaci yana da alaƙa da ra'ayin Newtonian game da lokaci na duniya, cikakken lokaci. Yana nuna cewa fahimtarmu game da lokaci tana da alaƙa da matsayinmu da motsinmu ta hanyar sararin samaniya. Wannan ya haifar da muhawara mai ban sha'awa game da yanayin gaskiya, dalili, da kuma ra'ayin "yanzu."
Tsarin Juna na Janar shi ma ya gabatar da ra'ayin sararin samaniya a matsayin wani abu mai sassauƙa da kuma mai ƙarfi. Aikin Hawking da Penrose kan abubuwan da ba a saba gani ba ya ƙara nuna cewa lokaci kamar yadda muka sani yana iya rugujewa a cikin mawuyacin yanayi, kamar cikin ramukan baƙi.
Practical Applications
Fahimtar halayen lokaci a ƙarƙashin yanayi daban-daban yana da amfani da yawa a aikace. Baya ga fasahar GPS, daidaiton lokaci da daidaitawa suna da mahimmanci ga lura da ilmin taurari.
