I propose to continue my thoughts on concepts of physics here as I have very good critics here especially in Smt.Renuka.
Here's my take on fundamental forces:
Background
There are four fundamental forces in nature. The standard model unifies three of these forces but so far has been unsuccessful in unifying the remaining force of gravity. The reason is that the unification of the other three forces can be explained by the Quantum theory but gravity which is described by Einstein’s general theory of relativity does not fit into the quantum model. I try to explain the reason for the disagreement between the quantum model and relativity by offering a fresh perspective of the concepts of space, time, force, energy and mass. Such a perspective is necessary if we are to break the current impasse in our full understanding of the fundamental forces. So I will not let myself be burdened by past knowledge but argue my case in a logical and consistent way.
I start with intuitive descriptions of the fundamental concepts.
Pure Energy
Pure energy is something which travels simultaneously in all the three dimensions, is undifferentiated and confined to the planck scale at any particular instant of time. Pure energy is also massless. I will call it as a wave when it facilitates better understanding.
Mass and Charge
When pure energy gets differentiated two fundamental properties happen; One is mass and the other is charge. For the differentiation to happen, pure energy has to get locked with another such energy. When such a unit spans beyond the planck scale, property of mass ensues. The other property that happens is the charge. There are two types of charges, namely the electric charge and the color charge.
Thus when matter is first born, it has these two fundamental properties of mass and charge. The fundamental particles which are quarks and leptons possess both these properties though leptons don’t possess the property of color charge.
Force
Force is simply the result of mass and charge. Attractive forces exist between masses, electric charges and color charges. These represent gravity, electromagnetism and strong nuclear forces. The other fundamental force being the weak nuclear force exists between flavors of quark, flavor determined by either the mass or the electric charges.
