You think you suddenly solved the Unified Theory with the electrical equals gravitational concept? With what education? If you are asking for confirmation here in this forum, you need a bit more education, and a few dozen good peers to discuss your ideas.

Electromagnetism is the physics of the electromagnetic field: a field, encompassing all of space, which exerts a force on those particles that possess the property of electric charge, and is in turn affected by the presence and motion of such particles. The term electrodynamics is sometimes used to refer to the combination of electromagnetism with mechanics, and deals with the effects of the electromagnetic field on the dynamic behavior of electrically charged particles. Electromagnetism encompasses various real-world electromagnetic phenomena.\n\n\nIt is often convenient to understand the electromagnetic field in terms of two separate fields: the electric field and the magnetic field. A non-zero electric field is produced by the presence of electrically charged particles, and gives rise to the electric force; this is the force that causes static electricity and drives the flow of electric charge (electric current) in electrical conductors. The magnetic field, on the other hand, can be produced by the motion of electric charges, or electric current, and gives rise to the magnetic force associated with magnets.\n\nThe term "electromagnetism" comes from the fact that the electric and magnetic fields generally cannot be described independently of one another. A changing magnetic field produces an electric field (this is the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, which underlies the operation of electrical generators, induction motors, and transformers). Similarly, a changing electric field generates a magnetic field.\n\nBecause of this interdependence of the electric and magnetic fields, it makes sense to consider them as a single, theoretically coherent entity — the electromagnetic field. This unification, which was completed by James Clerk Maxwell, is one of the triumphs of 19th century physics. It had far-reaching consequences, one of which was the elucidation of the nature of light: as it turns out, what we think of as "light" is actually a propagating oscillatory disturbance in the electromagnetic field, i.e., an electromagnetic wave. Different frequencies of oscillation give rise to the different forms of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves at the lowest frequencies, to visible light at intermediate frequencies, to gamma rays at the highest frequencies.\n\nThe theoretical implications of electromagnetism led to the development of special relativity by Albert Einstein in 1905.\n\nedit SI electromagnetism units \nSymbol Name of Quantity Derived Units  Base Units \nI Current ampere (SI base unit) A A \nq Electric charge, Quantity of electricity coulomb C A·s \nV Potential difference volt V J/C = kg·m2·s−3·A−1 \nR, Z Resistance, Impedance, Reactance ohm Ω V/A = kg·m2·s−3·A−2 \nρ Resistivity ohm metre Ω·m kg·m3·s−3·A−2 \nP Power, Electrical watt W V·A = kg·m2·s−3 \nC Capacitance farad F C/V = kg−1·m−2·A2·s4 \n Elastance reciprocal farad F−1 V/C = kg·m2·A−2·s−4 \nε Permittivity farad per metre F/m kg−1·m−3·A2·s4 \nχe Electric susceptibility (dimensionless) - - \n Conductance, Admittance, Susceptance siemens S Ω−1 = kg−1·m−2·s3·A2 \nσ Conductivity siemens per metre S/m kg−1·m−3·s3·A2 \nH Magnetic field, magnetic field intensity ampere per metre A/m A·m−1 \nΦm Magnetic flux weber Wb V·s = kg·m2·s−2·A−1 \nB Magnetic flux density, magnetic induction, magnetic field strength tesla T Wb/m2 = kg·s−2·A−1 \n Reluctance ampere-turns per weber A/Wb kg−1·m−2·s2·A2 \nL Inductance henry H Wb/A = V·s/A = kg·m2·s−2·A−2 \nμ Permeability henry per metre H/m kg·m·s−2·A−2 \nχm Magnetic susceptibility (dimensionless) - -

I think it is more accurate to say we can easily replicate the EFFECTS of gravity, rather than gravity itself.  Gravity relies on mass.  More mass, more gravity.  Any "replication" of real gravity is not replication it is the real thing.

Tesla's tower, perhaps?  This is just another way we know that the solar wind is NOT electrically neutral, since the Earth has to absorb the energy and balance itself through the aurora act.  Our instruments in space can't detect the charge difference because the solar "wind" (or electric current) is so big in its plasma state, and the difference per cubic meter is so small.\n\nThis is why scientists like Phil Plait who ride on the nuts of big names like Einstein just might be wrong, but who are we to question Einstein, right?  Well we got bigger and better telescopes and satellites for one, and we've been able to take better pictures and observations because of this.  Damn, I think they were barely discovering the Sun's magnetic field during Einstein's time.\n\nThere are so many examples out there that demonstrate the electrical nature of the universe.\n\nMars, and how it got blasted?  Yep.\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AlajPWBaIISxPbzkjEFDsqzsy6IX?qid=20060619194732AAwm9Mf\n\nComet's and their interactions with the Sun? Yep.  Venus' almost perfectly circular orbit, how we detected a long, "stringy" plasma structure issuing from Venus that nearly reached our planet, and how Venus spins the other direction very slowly, and how the entire planet has a nearly brand new surface, AND how ancient names for it are morning star, BEARDED planet, HAIRY planet, and SMOKY planet?  Oh yeah, double mother-fuckin' check on that.\n\nRead up on the "Electric Universe" theory, it's the future of space science.  All these old guys at NASA will be out of jobs if word ever gets out, so they'll get really mad when their life's work is challenged and I guess I can understand that.... but get OUT!

You are confusing energy and gravitational force. The two are\nnot equivalent. The property of gravity is based upon the mass of an object, the more mass an object has, the more gravity it posesses. The amount of gravity an object has does not increase or decrease with time.

The previous answer explained very well why it is important that the strong and weak forces are stronger than the electromagnetic force.  I will address *why* it's a good thing that gravity is weaker than the electromagnetic force, which also extends to an infinite distance.  That is because, while the electromagnetic force is sometimes attractive, sometimes repulsive, depending on the charges involved, gravity is always attractive.  Thus, while the electromagnetic force between any two fundamental charged particles is comparatively strong, overall, electromagnetism is weak, because the attractive and repulsive forces balance out.  Another way of saying the same thing is to note that overall, most macroscopic objects are electrically neutral, they have an equal number of positive and negative charges.  Even highly "charged" objects have overall only a tiny percentage more of positive charges than negative charges, or vice versa.  If gravity were as strong as E.M., then the universe would quickly collapse (or more properly, never would have formed) as all the particles in it would be too tightly bound together.

Here is the problem...\n\nThe more you study things, the more questions you have about them. Even Einstein died without fulfilling his wish to develop the unified field theory, unifying gravity with the other three known forces.

Like charges do not attract eachother.\n\nLike gravity does, but charges do not.

A magnetic field has a north and south polarity. Gravitation is mostly the same every where on Earth.

If they were in the same place and time, 'same' mathematically, they would fall at same speed.\n\nIf they were in different places or time, the forces exert on them may be different e.g. the moon which cause tides, and the gravitational acceleration 'g' is different from place to place.\n\nMy answer is different, coz' I am not a physicist but an engineer. I take everything into account. Of course, there are many forces beside gravitation and air resistant.\n\n"No air resistant" doesn't mean that there is only gravity. Besides, gravity different from place to place.

No, you are mixing things.\nDarwin had different things in mind than physics.

Well, I can see and measure the _effects_ of something that we call gravity, but as to there being a substance/force/action called gravity existing, since we can only measure it indirectly and not yet generate or manipulate it*, then scientifically speaking, there is no reason to believe in gravity. \n\n * Although NASA has tried successfully - See reference.

No it seems that they are not.  If you want to see any really interesting work on the subject of electricity and animus as a fluid you'll have to go back to Dr. Frankenstein's library of outdated and disproven theoretical works on natural philosophy.
1072778
Yes, in a sense.  Einstein explained some phenomena in the photoelectric effect by postulating that light sometimes behaves as though it is composed of little particles with discrete energies.

The reason that gravity can be described as a bending of space space is that it acts on everything equally. Electric charges and magnets don't--they attract some items, repel others, and have no effect on yet other things. I don't think that there is any way space could be bent that would be consistent with the behavior of these forces.

.  Gravity and magnetism are two very different kinds of forces.  Gravity is always attractive and is proportional to the masses of two objects and how close together they are.  Magnetism can be attractive (pulling objects together) or repulsive (pushing them apart).  Magnetism is due to electric fields, either in the atoms of certain materials or electric fields resulting from electric currents in a sizable quantity of material.\n.  The earth might be a large magnet, with a net magnetic orientation in its solid iron inner core making the core a magnet, but its magnetic field is due mostly due to electric currents in the molten iron outer core which are generated by interactions with other magnetic fields.  We know that the earth is not like a permanent magnet because its magnetic field reverses periodically, about every 100,000 to 200,000 years.\n.   There are four basic forces in physics: gravity, the electromagnetic force, the weak nuclear force and the strong nuclear force.  Gravity seems to be quite different from the other forces.  Quantum mechanics can explain the other three forces and demonstrate how, at very high particle energies, they could be a single force.  Gravity,so far, can not be united in theory with the other forces.
