Is our universe made up of particles or fields? On the one hand quantum physics tells that the universe is made up of discrete units of energy/mass while relativistic physics tells us it is composed of a continuous field of space-time Unfortunately these two ideas do not work well together because a continuous field by … Read more
Most will agree the goal of Physics is to define the laws of nature and provide an understanding of the why they translate to the universe we know. However, there may be some disagreement on how to approach it. For example, a classical approach would be to observe how matter and energy interact with our … Read more
Einstein, in his theory of relativity derived the force of gravity in terms of the geometry of space and time. Unfortunately he was unable describe the other forces in nature, above all the force of electromagnetism, in same terms, as was documented by the American Institute of Physics. “From before 1920 until his death in … Read more
