The Nature of Time

Keywords: total energy, relativity time, internal energy. accelerated object
The nature of the conservative field is used to show that the application of contact forces cannot change the total energy of an object. Mathematical analysis indicates that field forces are velocity-dependent. The concept that the reactive force does not work is shown in error. Analysis shows that the relativity time transformation has no validity in the sense of a time dilation, but indicates a reduction in the internal energy of an accelerated object, and hence the slowing of periodic processes.
