Infinity doesn't exist, and neither does 4, or even a triangle. Everything is a concept or an approximation.

A triangle exists in physics.

  • Physics doesn’t exist.

    Reality does, stuff happens, etc. But physics is an abstract model we use to make predictions about reality — and triangles are part of that abstract model, not things that actually exist.

    You can’t, for instance, show me a triangle. Just objects that are approximated by the abstract concept in physics.

  • Not if you keep zooming in. And not when you consider that all its particles are moving in random directions due to having a non-0 temperature

    • Not under matter. Under fields and interaction. Specially, under electromagnetism.
