Gravity Waves

[Michalowski]

In my research, I have come across posibile explantation of gravity, not in Newtonian Mechanics, but in wave mechanics.... please bear with me...

 

Physics has been attempting to find the unified field theory, a universal force that would link gravitation with electromagnetic and subatomic forces. To date, no one has been successful. My proposition is that the force of gravity is caused by a wave emitted from a mass oscillating in space-time.

 

Assume an object falls into a pool of water. Waves radiate outward from the central point, decreasing in amplitude as the wave moves farther from the central point.

 

The model of an object falling into a pool of water is three-dimensional. The waves radiate outward on a two-dimensional plane while moving vertically, adding a third-dimension. Thus a sphere will involve four-dimensions, which means Space-Time applies.

 

Amplitude determines the intensity of the wave.

~The higher the amplitude, the more intense the wave

~The lower the amplitude, the less intense the wave

 

This explains the decrease in brightness of light as distance increases if one assumes a scenario as described in the object falling into pool example

 

 

Now assume a wave created on a string attached to a wall and held at its other end by a hand. The wave will “pull” on the wall when it rebounds

~The higher the amplitude the larger the force

 

Objects oscillate in space-time. This is similar to an object on a spring

An increase a mass will increase the distance the spring will oscillate

 

Appling this to objects in space-time, larger masses generate a higher amplitude of gravitational waves.

 

---------------------

Thus I derive the following:

 

Gravity is a wave that radiates outward from a mass through space-time. Gravity travels at a constant speed, namely the speed of light. Because the wave radiates in a spherical manner, amplitude will decrease as distance increases. If amplitude decreases, then force decreases. Thus as distance increases, force decreases, this holds true for all observations by modern science. Mass increases will increase amplitude, which in turn increases force. All modern scientific observations support that gravitational force between objects increases if their masses increase, all other thing being constant.

Gravity waves are an idea that's already under investigation.

I belive they are a result of general relativity, but there may also be a backing in some other theory I'm forgetting.

Is a good read...

[Michalowski]

Yes, they are not new...

 

But I am charting into a bit of my own theory on them... including forming equations...

[ydoaPs]

have equations yet?

[Michalowski]

I’m sure ya’ll know of the inverse square law and it’s application to light. Well, I have determined the dimensions of amplitude to be [M*L / T^2] This is would be the dimensions of force, therefore the amplitude of a gravitational wave will determine the force at that point….

 

a=Gm(1)m(2)/r^2

 

If the mass remains constant…

 

A {is proportional to} 1 / r^2

 

This shows the inverse square law to gravity.

 

 

Moreover, I have determined wavelength to be

 

(lambda) = h*c*r/G/m(1)/m(2)

 

This means as objects move closer (r decreases), the wavelength will decrease. This is expected because it represents blue-shift.

could you please use the math tags from now on? click on a LaTeX image and it will show you the code that produced it.

 

 

I’m sure ya’ll know of the inverse square law and it’s application to light.

yea. i haven't seen an inverse square law FOR light, though, but i graduate high school saturday. i've used them for electric force/fields and gravitational force/fields.

 

Well, I have determined the dimensions of amplitude to be [M*L / T^2]

can you explain this bit?

 

This is would be the dimensions of force, therefore the amplitude of a gravitational wave will determine the force at that point….

 

[math]a=G{\frac{{m_1}{m_2}}{r^2}}[/math]

 

If the mass remains constant…

 

[math]A{\alpha}{\frac{1}{r^2}}[/math]

 

This shows the inverse square law to gravity.

so, are you saying the amplitude is equal to the force of gravity? could you show this rather than assume it? also, i wouldn't use a small "a" for amplitude as it can easily be construed as aceleration.

 

 

Moreover, I have determined wavelength to be

 

[math]\lambda=\frac{h*c*r}{G{m_1}{m_2}}[/math]

how did you determine it?
