Abstract

The study of time has a long history and is still ongoing. The term time as formulated by Isaac Newton was created in the 17th century, so naturally it could not relate to thermodynamics. The concept of time introduced by Newton is still popular because it reflects the common human experience of passing. Gottfried W. Leibniz and Immanuel Kant questioned only the absoluteness of time and not its uniform passage. Kant in his profound reflections explicitly linked the sensation of time to man and his sensuality. In this article the definition of time resulting from modern knowledge is introduced justifying the thesis that time is a manifestation of a thermodynamic process, it elapses uniformly, at a rate determined by an appropriate natural constant. The constant has the value of 0.08 [1/year] and indicates the natural connection of the passage of time with the cyclic motion of the planet Earth, and therefore with the calendar. The passage of time is uniform, so the phenomenon of changing the speed of time does not occur.
