We can measure the velocity of time. Its called a clock

Time proceeds at different rates depending on realtive speed and gravitational effects. Therefore it DOES make sense to talk about the velocity of time. On the surface of a pulsar, time proceeds at about 15% slower than it does on Earth, so you could say that the velocity of time on the surface of a pulsar is 85%.

You CAN encounter the singularity. But you need to travel across the event horizon to do so. It is the last thing you will encounter, though. Some people have speculated on the existence of naked singularities: no event horizon to hide them. If these existed, you could detect them indirectly.

You are right, your teacher is either wrong or lazy.

Regards, my friend.

You don't see the singularity point .. you see the event horizion.
Measure the Velocity of time? Well we do that already... seconds. There is no such thing as a negative seconed.. tell him just because the scalar is always positive doesn't mean the measurment of time itself is Scalar..Tell him the measurment of time in minute quantites is a vector quantity and see what he says.

Well velocity is Distance divided by time so according to conventional Newtonian Physics there is no such thing as the velocity of time. Try looking into non-Newtonian Physics though, you think differently due to your dyslexia, use that and your interest in Physics. If people hadn't thought differently in the first place we would still believe that the Earth was the centre of the universe and that everything revolved around us and that the Earth is flat!

Stay inquistive!

ve‧loc‧i‧ty  /vəˈlɒsɪti/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[vuh-los-i-tee] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation

–noun, plural -ties. 1. rapidity of motion or operation; swiftness; speed: a high wind velocity.
2. Mechanics. the time rate of change of position of a body in a specified direction.
3. the rate of speed with which something happens; rapidity of action or reaction.



V=Distance/time
so no it is not true. because time has no "actual" distance.


Your teacher is right.

And you can't see the black hole only the event horizon, where light is pulled in the the blackhole.

Sure. It flows at a rate of 1 second per second in any given inertial reference frame. If you are in one frame and try to measure the flow of time in another reference frame, you'll see the 'time dilation' predicted by Special Relativity.

You can't 'see' the singularity in a black hole because:
1. There are no photons. They've been torn apart to become individual quanta.
2. You body will have been torn apart into its individual atoms.
3. The individual atoms will have been torn apart into individual quanta.

Velocity is the change of position over time. So you cannot measure the velocity of time, you would be measuring time relative to itself.

the velocity of time is constant.... and we measure it with a clock....... As to seeing the singularity of a black hole, well since nothing escapes the event horizon, I guess you would have to be beyound that to see it.....
