Profpat Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 I have a question that is purely speculative in nature. Is it possible to view the big bang as anti/gravity? ( the repusive force ) I never really liked the fact that gravity was attractive only. Being an accountant I like the concept of balance and symmetry and everything being accounted for.( action/reaction; attraction/repulsion; left/right symmetry; etc. ) So I was wondering if the expansion of the universe ( which I guess is still going on ) is the anti/gravity and our regular gravity which is attractive are equated? I would appreciate the members thoughts on this. Thank you, Profpat
Jacques Posted August 15, 2007 Posted August 15, 2007 I also see gravity and space expansion as opposed force, but they are not of the same nature: Gravity is proportional to mass product space expansion involve no mass. Gravity follow an inverse square distance law, space expansion follow a direct distance law. I am not an expert but that is my 2 cents...
