Cause of Gravity Force: Explaining Monopolar Attraction

[Bob Nesil]

Force is naturally associated with something acting on anything. Eletromagnetic forces are bipolares, i.e., charges are of opposite signals to atract one another. Why gravity is monopolar ? The einsteins elastic rubber example imply on a kind of hyerarchy of forces, so, it would possible that such hyerarchy of forces possibly causes what we know as gravity ?

General Relativity theory describes gravity as the geometry of space-time and as Wheeler said:

Matter tells space-time how to curve and space-time tells matter how to move.

Why matter likes to travel space-time geodesics can't be answered until perhaps we have a theory of everything when all will be revealed until we find something that isn't...

I like the old story of the Earth being supported in the heavens by sitting on the back of a giant. The giant? He's standing on a turtle. The turtle? It's standing on another and its turles all the way down...

Let's keep it to actual physics, please.

You're taking that rubber sheet analogy too seriously. It doesn't "imply" anything because it's not really how gravity works, it's just a generally misleading analogy.

You might try searching this forum for other discussions of the rubber sheet analogy, as well as poster A.T.'s videos and animations of gravity at work.

Gravity is a fundamental force in the universe that is responsible for the attraction between objects with mass. It is often referred to as a monopolar force because it only has one type of charge, mass, and does not have a positive or negative polarity like electromagnetic forces.

The reason for this monopolar nature of gravity can be explained by the theory of general relativity proposed by Albert Einstein. According to this theory, gravity is not a force like other forces such as electromagnetism, but rather a curvature of space and time caused by the presence of mass and energy. This curvature creates a gravitational field that affects the motion of objects with mass, causing them to be attracted to each other.

The einsteins elastic rubber example is often used to illustrate this concept. Just like how a heavy object placed on an elastic rubber sheet causes a depression in the sheet, the presence of a massive object causes a curvature in the fabric of space-time. This curvature then affects the motion of other objects, causing them to be pulled towards the center of the depression.

As for the hierarchy of forces, it is possible that gravity is a result of the interplay between different forces in the universe. However, it is currently not fully understood how these forces interact and contribute to the phenomenon of gravity. Further research and study in this area may provide more insights into the origin and nature of gravity.
