Zeno's Paradox Of The Cave

Around 490 BCE, Zeno was born in Italy. He was born before the philosopher Socrates. When Zeno got older he became a pre-Socratic greek philosopher. He studied under the philosopher Parmenides and was reported as his lover. Studying under Parmenides, Zeno had taken into account the claims of Parmenides about what is, but he does not believe in what Parmenides is saying. Zeno challenges what his teacher had taught him and argues that motion is not compatible with the claims Parmenides had made for reality. Everything today that we know about Zeno comes from Plato. Zeno was twenty five years younger then his teacher. In his philosophy he challenges the evidence of our senses. When he was older and Parmenides was older and gray, they traveled

It says that if there are equal bodies moving in a stadium alongside equal bodies that are moving in the complete opposite direction it will take the bodies moving at a certain speed a certain time to pass the body. Each time around the stadium it will take the same amount of time to pass that body again. Zeno argues here that with the amount of time it takes for a body to pass another depends on how fast that body is going. Another way to say this paradox works is by the seats of a stadium move. One from is full of six people that their seat do not move at all. The next row of six only move to the right and the next row of six only move to the left. The two moving rows move at the same speed as each other. Since row three is moving, the six people in that row will pass twice as many people as that of the people that are in the second row. Even though with both rows two and three moving, it takes them half the time to line up perfectly with each other. The two moving rows still take the same time as before to return back into the position that they were in when they

It assumes that there are many things within the universe. Each object that is in the universe is so small that it does not have a size, but at the same time each object is so big that it is to be something unlimited. Zeno’s argument begins with anything that exist has size. The two assumptions that Zeno makes are the things that have size can be divided into other parts that already exist in the universe. The second one is those things are asymmetrical, irreflexive, and transitive. Zeno assumes that if something has infinitely many parts to it, then that something is infinitely large. The argument that Zeno has about the paradox of plurality is the infinite principle of divisibility and
