[HydrogenBond]

If one looks at quanta of EM energy, it is composed of two dynamic factors; wavelength and frequency. The wavelength gives us a measure of distance and the frequency a measure of time. I call these two aspects, distance potential and time potential, the product of which equals the value of the energy quanta. The only other factor in the equation is a constant; Planck's constant. As such, within these distance and time manifestations defines the energy content of that energy quanta.

If we inputted a quanta of EM enegy into a hydrogen atom, the electron will kick up into a higher state and then drop back down to ground state. Notice what happens, the size or distance of the hydrogen atom increases and a certain amount of time lapses to kick up the electron to an excited state. Or in other words, the distance potential within the energy quanta increases the distance characteristic of the hydrogen atom and the time potential aspect induces a change of state that can be used as a standard to measure time.

When we measure distance, for example, energy is always required. One can not see a meter stick unless visable light energy goes through our eyes into our brains. Even measuring atomic distances with x-ray diffraction requires the equipment see x-rays before we can measure these small distancces. Time and distance may be reference tools, but they need energy to be measured. The energy not only allows one to measure distance and time, but energy also contain distance and time potential, which is used to induce distance states and the changes of state equated with time.

If we assume distance and time are potential quanta, then time dilation and distance contraction are explanable without heavy math. Special relativity uses velocity (kinectic energy). This velocity state required an energy input to achieve. This energy input and/or potential energy stores time potential. General Relativity is based on gravity. This stores gravitiaiton potential energy, and also accumulates time potential.

The laws of physics being the same in all reference implies, that the accumulated time potential, due to velocity/kinectic energy, is evenly distributed over the entire moving reference. Everything has changed its time potential state in proportion, allowing the laws of physics to dissipate time potential in charateristic proportions. But relative to stationary reference, the rate of dissipation appear to slow because the base time potential state is lower in stationary reference.

Has anyone ever wondered why electrons and protons last so long, compared to all the parts generated during accelerator experiments? The original particle composites contain a lot of time potential, enough to last for billions of years. The accelerator adds even more as special relativity. The accelerator collisions dissipate the time potential. The change of state output shows up as temporary states that don't last long. In other words, if you could take all the subparticles and add time potential back you could make electrons and protons.
