[SOLVED] the nature of electric magnetic radiation,it's rest mass and potential to sl
Some people look at light as photons I look at
light simular to radio waves except at a higher
frequency,so if you analyse light from the point
of from radio waves you get a much better
picture as to what's going on.If you have wire
carrying DC current it has a magnetic field
around it,since this field is something it must
have mass although extremely small.When an AC
current is fluctuated at a low frequecy in an
antenna this magnetic field collaspes around the
the antenna, as the frequency increases the speed
at which the field expands and contracts
increases. At certian frequency the waves
propagate where the veloctity of the expanding
magnetic field is c and the contractive force
of the magnetic field is overcome. Since magnetic
fields have mass and light is made up of
magnetic fields,then light must have rest mass.
Therefore at c light waves have a value of
mass and can therefore be slowed down. Light
from a distant star can be slowed down by the
contractive force of the magnetic portion of light
acting on the expanding electromagnetic radiation
after it's covered vast distances. This should
show up as red shifting of a distant star.
Replying to the comment does a magnetic field have
mass, I assumed that since a magnetic exists it
would follow that it would have mass. The proof
that I can offer you is this, if you take a
superconducting air core toriodal inductor and charge it with a powerful magnetic field,then
energy x will have gone into the toriod,since no energy was dissipated in the toriod windings,the
energy must be stored in the toriod.Relying on
energy mass equivalency the toriod with the
magnetic field is going to have more mass than
the one without the field.So therefore it is safe
to assume that a magnetic field has mass.
Further correction, could it be possible that
a magnetic field is stored potential energy and
has no mass? I think it's time that science
investigates this situation, it will answer a
lot of questions.
