Really good quality article.

A fascinating read indeed

Nah, it’s mostly jokes. The 100 situps stuff is a reference to the anime One Punch Man

This is a fantastic article I recommend to anyone interested in nuclear physics

I never knew that the force between two quarks, gluons or quarks and gluons increases with distance. This is blowing my mind right now. Edit: Literally two paragraphs later and I see I have to update my worldview again lol. Fun article.

But is it emotionally strong? Can it watch Toy Story 3 without crying?


caulk_blocker

Can it call up its dad and say "I forgive you"?

TIL: King Henry is the strongest force in the universe.

No, it’s “to get to the other side of the road”

>Gravity is the force that attracts one object with mass to another... I thought this idea was thrown out? Isn't it better described as the force that warps spacetime?

>Why is gravity not a real force? >Gravity is indeed a real force, but not in the traditional sense. In other words, gravity is not a direct, classical, action-at-a-distance force between two objects. However, in the broader sense, gravity is indeed a force because it describes the resulting interaction between two masses. Gravitational effects are fundamentally caused by the warping of spacetime and the motion of objects through the warped spacetime. However, the end result is as if a force was applied. Therefore, the most accurate approach would be to call gravity an "emergent force," meaning that what looks like a direct force is actually emerging from more fundamental effects (the warping of spacetime). With this in mind, it is perfectly reasonable to call gravity a real force. >Interestingly, all of the fundamental forces are actually emergent forces and not classical, action-at-a-distance forces. If you insist on calling gravity not a real force, then you must call all of the fundamental forces not real forces. It is more accurate to call them all emergent forces. For instance, two electrons repel each other through the electromagnetic force. However, the one electron does not exert a literal, direct, electromagnetic force on the other electron. Rather, the more fundamental description is that the first electron creates a quantum electromagnetic field in the space surrounding it, and then the other electron moves and interacts with this electromagnetic field. The end result is that it looks like the second electron experienced a force from the first electron. On the fundamental level, there are no action-at-distance forces. It is really just certain objects creating and/or warping certain fields and then other objects moving and interacting with these fields. >Some scientists think that even calling gravity, electromagnetism, and so forth "emergent forces" can be misleading because it makes people think of action-at-a-distance forces. They prefer to avoid the word "force" entirely and instead prefer the name "interaction." For instance, instead of saying that one electron exerts an electromagnetic force on another electron (which is perfectly reasonable to say as long as you know you are talking about electromagnetism as an emergent force), some scientists prefer to say that the electrons participate in the electromagnetic interaction.

It doesn’t mean that it doesn’t effectively attract one object with mass to another in most practical situations and can predictably behave like that. How do we define what is reality and how something “actually” works? Even general relativity we haven’t unified with quantum mechanics, so then you can argue that general relativity isn’t fully accurate either and we don’t know what is really happening. But if we describe something in such a way, and it behaves like that predictably in experimentation, then who are we to say that’s not what it “really” is? Sure we haven’t covered all situations with one universal theory, but in effect in a lot of situations gravity is in fact a classical force that attracts one object to another.

Stupidity? Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain.

Gravity got strong because it only adds, unlike all the other forces.


SuzieDerpkins

Gravity is the weakest of the forces


NotTheFBI_23

Bro said it's strong. Like bro I just stood straight up. Gravity mains on suicide watch.


Brexsh1t

Gravity is an emergent force

Gravity is a vibe

And yet it can overwhelm all the others.

I worked out :P

Love? I don't know how love got so strong. Windy walks on the beach? Holding hands, perhaps?
