Explanation of Zeno Paradox
Zeno Paradox is a series of philosophical paradoxes about the inseparability of motion put forward by Zhi Nuo, an ancient Greek mathematician. These paradoxes are known to later generations because they are recorded in Aristotle's book Physics. Zhi Nuo put forward these paradoxes in order to support his teacher parmenides's theory that "being" is fixed and a "being". The two most famous paradoxes are: "Achilles can't outrun the tortoise" and "the arrow doesn't move". These methods can now be explained by the concept of calculus (infinity), but they can't be solved by calculus, because the premise of the existence of calculus principle is the existence of extensiveness (for example, whether a line segment with extensiveness is infinitely divided or composed of a line segment with extensiveness, rather than a point without extensiveness). ), and Zeno paradox not only recognizes universality, but also emphasizes the point of non-universality. These paradoxes are difficult to solve because they focus on the differences of mechanical theories represented by Descartes and Gasanti. These paradoxes can actually be simplified as: 1/0= infinity.
