MEASUREMENTS OF BECOMING

Measurements of becoming* are time and duration. These measurements respond to the questions: How long does/did It last? and When did It happen? respectively.

Time is the chronological measurement of becoming. In the time we determine the moment in what a fact occurs within an ordered series of events. Examples of time are the time (clock) and date (calendar).

The duration is the not chronological measurement of becoming. In the duration we determine the permanence of beings and phenomena in reality. We also determine how long an event takes to occur. Examples of duration are timers and the age of a person.

Time and duration are typical of the macrocosm. As the quantum becoming is governed by chance, duration and time are not valid in the microcosm.

* Becoming is the inherent property of matter and bodies to experience sequential changes.
