8. Energy is an equivalent of the
information
1. It is known, that any kind of energy can not exist
abstractly. The quite concrete objects have certain kind of energy. The energy
can be transferred only with the help of some carriers.
Various objects carry energy in different systems of
interaction. In particular, in physical SI the electromagnetic waves are energy
carriers, in mechanical SI the driven bodies carry the energy, in chemical SI -
spatial structure of chemical connections (compounds),
in biological SI - ATF (phosphoric) acid etc.
Similarly, in information SI the information contains
on the diversified carriers - paper, film, hard and floppy disks, holograms
etc.
If common information nature is the basis of all
things, mentioned above, it is possible to assume, that carriers of energy in
physical information systems are allowed to consider as carriers of the
information, and energy as the form of the information.
2. The energy is conditional or elective The energy of
one SI is not always an energy for another SI, if their carriers are
incompatible for any reason.
The information is conditional too. That is new to
one, can be known to another. Therefore, the same information object represents
diverse value for different SI objects. The information in one language can be
clear to its user and can be used only if user knows this language, i.e. is
capable to decode this information and to transform it.
Money is a universal equivalent. By purchase, which can
be considered as a way of interaction, they always can be transformed to any
quantity of some energy carrier, and energy too.
Hence, money can be transformed to any kind of energy.
At the same time money, first of all, is carriers of
the information. They are information objects of associative financial monetary
and economic information systems of interaction in the country. Thus they are
conditional. Money of one country not always is money in other country. To use
them in other country, they should be exchanged, i.e. to transform the
information, available on them, to other, understandable and accepted in this
country.
3. The transition of energy from one system of
interaction in another is possible with the help of special processes and
devices, realising concrete algorithm (chain) of transformation (of code
conversion or decoding) of one kind of energy in another.
Similarly, the information transition from one SI in
another is also possible only with the help of algorithms of transformation and
special devices.
Thus the chain of transformation of the information
should strictly be observed.
The information transforming goes on hierarchy from
above downwards easier. Primary SI, bearing senior and more primary kinds of
energy or the information, are basic for younger ones, because they create or
form them, therefore senior kinds of the information easily interfere in
younger and influence them.
Example 1. The chemical connections can be destroyed
by action of primary fields and nuclear objects, but the contrary case occurs
extremely seldom.
Example 2. The bioprograms of a man's brain can be
destroyed by action of chemical or biological SI objects on the biosystem which
has created these programs. The work of a brain stops, if biological SI collapses
(its body collapses). Bioprogram can't destroy chemical connections directly,
but, if she purposefully works through a chain of various transformations,
using the senior or equal objects as chemical connections, medicines, etc., she
(bioprogram) can destroy or block action of any chemical objects, including
harmfully influencing on her carrier.
In this case return influence on objects of the senior
information system occurs at the expense of use of additional kinds of the
information.
If we identify energy to the information, the
numerical definition of an equivalent of unit of energy and unit of the
information become interesting.
Let's consider the process of energy carrying at
distribution of electromagnetic fluctuations in vacuum.
Let's assume, that one quantum of energy of an
electromagnetic wave D Å will be equivalent to concrete volume of the
information ΔI equal to ni bits of the information
ΔI = ni
It is possible to consider amount of the information, carrying
by an electromagnetic wave as concrete amount of energy, but for this purpose
it is necessary to enter transitive function Ki = Êi (ni...)
[Dg/bit], dependent from parameters, unknown to us
ΔÅ=Ki (ni...).
Physically, function Ki - is a power equivalent
of one bit of the information (Dg/bit).
The amount of energy, transmitted in one quantum of
electromagnetic fluctuation, depends on its frequency and is defined by product
ΔE = ž ∙ f,
Where ž - constant of Plank (ž=6.626176*10-34
Dgh), is a value dependent on dimensions of frequency f and energy Å.
Having equated ΔE and ΔI, we shall receive
ž ∙ f = Ki(ni...).
As ž = const, we come to the relation
f/Ki (ni...) = 1/ ž = const.
Hence, function Ki(ni...) is a
factor of proportionality for f. As we consider, that quantum of energy is
equivalent only to concrete volume of the information ΔIi equal
to ni bits of the information, it is possible to write down
ΔI=ni and Ki (ni...)
=Ki ni.
Checking the previous recording we shall receive
ž f = Ki ni,
Or
Êi= ž (f / ni).
It would be possible to consider, that during one
fluctuation of a wave the information equal to one bit is transferred. Then the
ratio f/ni would be equal to unit,
f / ni=1
In case of validity of the given assumption we have received,
that the power equivalent of one bit of the information would be numerically
equal a constant of Plank, i.e.
Ki = ž = 6.626176∙10-34
[Dgh/bit]
[ (Dgh ∙ sec) ∙ (sec-1 / bit)] = [Dgh
/bit]
Hence, one bit of the information would have a power equivalent
equal a constant of Plank.
Looking forward, we shall note, that according to
hypotheses 1 and 2 chapter IX, the transfer of one complete period of a wave of
electromagnetic fluctuations is carried out by an information exchange cycle,
which volume is 16 bits. But, actually energy of a wave contains always two
bits of the information. This information also will be allocated at absorption
and dismantle of quantum of electromagnetic fluctuations.
Hence, the power equivalent of one bit of the information
should be twice less than constant of Plank, i.e.
Ki = ž/2 = 3.313088∙10-34
[Dgh/bit]
The power equivalent of the information allows to
define amount of the information of her component on weight of a body, and,
hence, to judge a complexity degree of physical formation (body).
If the body weight is equal to M, then, using
expression Å=Ìñ2, we shall find total of the information of all
information systems forming this body:
I = E/Ki = Mñ2/Ki
The rating of a power equivalent of 1 kg of weight of
any physical body, which can be defined by expression is interesting
I1kg = Ìñ2/Ki=1.0∙(2.99792458∙108)2
/ 3.313088∙10-34
I1kg = 2,712741643859∙1050
[bit]
As we see, the passive information equivalent of body weight
of only 1 kg is expressed in fantastic figure 2,712741643859∙1050
[bit].
Let's estimate volume of the information, which is
operated by man's brain.
Let the quantity of neurones in a brain be equal to 15
billions. We admit, that one neurone represents the bioprocessor, which
processes the information with average frequency alfa-rhythm, i.e. 15 hertz.
Then volume of the information, which is operated by a brain per one second
(active productivity of a brain) will make
Ima=15∙1012 ∙15 =
225∙1012 [bit / sec]
If to summarise volume of the information generated by
a brain during all his life (on the average 70 years = 91980000 seconds), the
brain will process (will generate) only 2.1∙1022 bit of the
information, that is equivalent to 0.763∙10-28 kg of weight of
a material body.
These ratings could result in a paradoxical
conclusion, that the life of one man gives a gain weight of the universe about
0.763∙10-28 KGs. Hardly it is so. It is necessary to take into
account, that the brain makes not a huge amount of new information. Processing
of the new-coming information, i.e. her transforming, is not always generating
of the new information structures having certain power value. Don't forget,
that the energy has property of reserve or relative value. This direction of
works still should be researched.
But, on the other hand, if everything is stated
correctly, any process of generating (or even of duplication) new information
objects, having some power equivalent, should derive energy and weight. It
gives the basis to look at an opportunity of creation of essentially new
sources of energy with hope.
The deep research of energy production processes in
microprocessor chips or in powerful chips of memory is of interest. It is
possible, that additional energy is formed there during the work of the
computer chip in the process of generating the new information. It is expedient
to investigate power balance of computer chips checking energy of entering and
outgoing information flows. Probably, there is allocated a little bit more
energy, than it should be only due to physical processes (heat, heating of a
MICROWAVE etc.).
The process of deleting of the information from cells
of chip-memory, which should be similar to process of burning chemical
substances, is interesting from the same point of view. Then, as a result of burning the complex
spatial information structure of the object and substance collapses, and the
free energy is allocated, which we, at the end, fix as heat. It is possible,
that according to principle of recording - deleting of the information on
special memory chips it will be possible to create essentially new accumulators
of energy etc.
Let's consider process of transformation of the
information from one system of interaction to another.
Let system 1 is characterised by a set of objects N1,
and system by 2 by set of objects N2. If any information object of system 1,
with the help of information system 3, will be transformed to information
object of system 2, that, as a result of these transformations, the objects of
system 2 are put in conformity to the objects of system 1. The image received
in system 2, will differ from the original in system 1. It is possible to name
differences of an image from the original as deformation of information object
or deformation of the information. The deformation of an image will depend on
equivalence of objects of co-operating systems, properties of system 3 and set
of other factors.
For example, while translating the text from one
language, as a rule, an absolute conformity of the translated information to
the original can't be reached. At retranslation of the same text to original
language, appreciable divergences
appears there. This change of the primary information is its deformation. To
translate the text (information) from one status to another, there should be a
third intermediate system of interaction, which is capable to cooperate with
both systems, for what she should have the necessary information about both
systems and about rules of transformation of the information.
The degree of deformation of the initial information
depends on system of interaction, which is carrying out interaction with both
systems. At deformation of the information there is a loss of some part of the
primary information and restoration of missing fragments from objects available
in that system, where the information is transferred.
If the object is completely reflected in new system of
interactions, actually new object, associatively connected with the original,
is created there. As the reflected object is created from system quanta, in
which an object appears, this process consumes quanta of this system and
energy, as the quanta of any system are created from objects of senior system.
If the object is transferred in new system of
interaction or is absorbed by her (and it is really), if the quanta,
constructing this object can cooperate with elements of new system, i.e. are
related by it, the destruction of carrying information structures can be
characterised as allocation of energy, and restoration of information
structures of absorbed object, as an expenditure of energy.
Let's look at an everyday example, when the child in
the beginning has collected a toy from the meccano, i.e. has created concrete
object, and then assorts it. It is obvious, that at disassembly of a toy on a
detail the information on a mutual arrangement of objects - elements of the
meccano collapses in physical system of interactions.
If we recognise, that the information has an equivalent
in energy, it is necessary to recognise, that at disassembly (dismantle,
destruction) of any object, the energy will be produced due to destruction of
the information containing in a mutual arrangement of elements of destructed
object. A kind of energy, to which the produced (destroyed) information will be
transformed will depend on a kind of destructing object. For example, at
explosion of chemical connection, his structure, as the information on a mutual
arrangement of molecules, collapses. Some more simple structures are formed. As
a result, the energy as thermal and mechanical movement of molecules of
explosion products is produced.
Total energy produced (information) depends on
complexity of structure, amount of objects and degree of their destruction.
Let's compare. In the children's meccano there are not many details and
connections, therefore loss of the information at dismantle of a toy is
insignificant and we do not feel the energy, though we understand, that there
was the loss of the information at disassembly of a toy . At destruction
(explosion, burning) chemical connection of the same volume, much more energy
will be produced - it can be easily felt. It is natural, that there will be
much more co-operating elements, molecules of substance for example, in this
process. At destruction of nuclear objects structure, there will be produced
even more energy, as it is much more atoms in the same volume of substance,
than molecules.
It is possible to produce the greatest possible
quantity of elements in given volume of physical space only in the case if they
are in a formal status. It would be possible to make a conclusion that the
greatest energy can be received at destruction of information structures of
subquantum level. However, being in a formal status, the subelementary objects
are not objects of our universe and it is difficult even to imagine, how can
result attempts of their destruction.
