[quote:Anonymous Coward 1326372:MV8xNDU1MTU4XzI0MDA3NDY5X0ZERDcxOUUw] Gravity as the weak force is most succinctly explained thus: Nuclear force: When an electron with a negative charge interacts with a proton by being in motion relative to it and in close proximity to it, a force of attraction similar or the same as 'electrostatic' forces are created. The difference in potential holds the electron in it's orbit like gravity holds a planet in it's orbit around the Sun. The inverse proportionality of the forces with distance is identical. Electrostatic forces With electrostatic forces, two objects with a difference in electrical potential are drawn together by a similar force to what holds atoms together, and the inverse proportionality of the strength of the force is also identical to the other forces, nuclear , magnetic, and gravitational. My personal feeling is this electrostatic attraction caused by an interactions of the excess in electrons on the charged object with the electrically neutral object is ultimately the explanation of all of the forces.. Again, it is difference in electrical potential that creates the force, just like with the atom . So the nuclear force is obviously related to the electrostatic principal and therfor gravity must be very weak electrostatic force. I think it is easy to see that the Sun has a different overall charge than the Earth [/quote]

How’s that for a Wednesday evening mind-bender?
Erik Verlinde, a Dutch theoretical physicist and string theorist, has some questions about gravity–one question specifically: where does gravity come from? Turns out, Verlinde explains, that gravity is an illusion.
