between an object moving and an object not moving, what is the indivisible step that sits between the start of movement and the movement itself?
Willpower.
>>16934056what is in the middle of willpower beginning and willpower acting?
>>16934042Everything is always moving, it’s just harder to perceive and less efficient to model such movement in the brain anyway. But let’s consider an object being acted upon by another force. Well then it starts moving and that’s pretty much it so yeah stop thinking about it

>>16934042This is science board where for practical purposes we assume materialism is the truth. You should ask that on /lit/ which is the closest thing to philosophy board.

>>16934042>intermediate stage between being and non-being?Dying.>between the start of movement and the movement itselfacceleration
>>16935075acceleration is a numberif you could divide movement in frames, would there would be two frames between rest and the first sign of movement? if so, wouldn't that be an instantaneous change therefore faster than light?
>>16935121>acceleration is a numberNo, it is a concept.>would there would be two frames between rest and the first sign of movement?The first sign of movement and no sign of movement are both necessary to calculate the initial acceleration because acceleration is an intermediate calculation as you asked, it basically averages out the lack of movement with the calculated movement to determine the rate of change between those two moments.

>>16934042Nothing. It's either moving or it isn't.>but muh philosophyDon't care about ancient greek word games
>>16936868nonsense >>16936889your physics stands on nothing, you're all just playing mind games with imaginary constructions
>>16937129Oops, I just shot you in the face thanks the "imaginary constructions" I devised, even though the bullet shouldn't have been able to reach your face or even leave the barrel according to Zeno's paradoxes of motion. What a blunder!
>>16934042The intermediate stage does not exist because "moving" is a continuum, and the probability of pinning any one specific value in a continuum is zero.In other words, if you move even in the slightest you're not stationary, and no matter how close you zoom in you'll never find an intermediate state, just intermediate speeds.
>>16934042The step of OP spreading his cheeks
>>16937180you can make a gun without any quantum bullshit or newtonian physics, it's called being an engineer or technician
>>16937188>"moving" is a continuum, and the probability of pinning any one specific value in a continuum is zero.by absurdity that must mean there is no continuum>In other words, if you move even in the slightest you're not stationary, and no matter how close you zoom in you'll never find an intermediate statehave physicists shown that at any point of is this just your hypothesis?
>>16937264>you can make a gun without any quantum bullshitI guess? Is your only understanding of post-medieval physics "quantum bullshit"?>or newtonian physicsNot really. Well, not a very good gun at any rate, classical mechanics are kind of unavoidable.
>>16934042>what is the intermediate stage between being and non-being?Potentiality. See: Aristotle
>>16937129What is the "intermediate stage" between one infinitesimal and the next?
I think that the middle state is "cooking"
>>16937606The object thinks about moving and then it's cookin' about it.
>>16937566that's the question what is it?why haven't physicists measured it?
>>16937625Because you can't, it's infinitely small to the point there will be no iteration to see no matter how far you go. Contemplating "what's next" at the infinitesimal succession of a real number is a waste of time to contemplate at that point. It becomes an analytic a posteriori question due to this infinite progression that no prior calculation can resolve. With real numbers there can only be whatever is after them, not whatever is "next".
>>16934042Existence is discrete, it's on or off, no inbetween
>>16937659>Because you can't, it's infinitely small prove it using scientific evidence >>16937864>Existence is discreteprove it using scientific evidence
>>16937890>prove it using scientific evidenceThe discreteness of the world can't be proven scientifically yet, give it 20-50 years.Philosophically it's the only good solution to Zeno's paradox of motion.
>>16937916>Philosophically it's the only good solution to Zeno's paradox of motion.his paradox is not the problem, it's the intermediate between infinitesimal states
>>16934042The plane of ideas and concepts. Its where you will first go when you die, it will feel like earth as thats where your ideas come from. But due to lack of use, the most physical ideas will vanish until you are left with only abstract thought. That is heaven.
>>16940756okwhat's the intermediate step between an idea/concept and a non-idea/non-concept?
>>16934056what is the intermediate step between willpower acting and willpower just being?
OP heremayhaps, the answer is a state with properties of both movement and non-movement, being and non-being, kind of like how a liquid is the intermediate step between solid and gas, with properties of each of them (fluid like the gas, touchable like the solid)
>>16942061jerking it while suffocating yourself
>>16934042simply changeWhatever you might describe as that step fundamentally depends on change.Change is abrupt, in the sense that you can't actually get "underneath" it to find what causes it, as whatever cause you would describe also depends on change.You might be able to explain why a particular change occured, for example one object bumped another which caused movement. This doesn't explain how change exists in the first place, as whatever cause you ascribe to change is simply another change.
>>16934042jerk? thats already solved lol
>>16943021i LOVE jerking!
>>16942927why inertia? what is inertia?
Literally her.
>>16943021jerk is a quantity, not an actual thing
