    Something that keeps me thinking is how do magnets work in a vacuum. As there is some sort of static field emerging from a permanent magnet that does not consume any kind of power, does not need any kind matter to transfer energy from one pole to the other. Extreme strong magnets have large fields but are not detectable by any sort of visual camera yet are very much present. So much so that one could crush your hand if you held it between the magnet and a piece of iron or another magnet. This means its having a clear and strong effect radiating onto the fabric of space. But what exactly is that field made off. The only way you can know its there is by having something that interacts with it. As far as i understand your explanation of those fields are 'Electrical Phenomena'. Awesome video, sorry if i didn't fully understand it. I appreciate it immensely that you take the time and effort explaining such topics.

      Hi Combomaster, most of the answers are in the video, and your questions, which are good ones, show that you seem to have some misunderstanding about the concept of fields.
      You mention energy (power) not being consumed by a magnet or field. Yes. You can see a magnet like a mountain and a map of the height as the field itself. Place a ball on the mountains slope, it falls down the slope and gains velocity (Kinetic energy). The energy doesn’t come from the magnet or the field (the mountain or the height), but from the person that went up the mountain to put the ball there in the first place and gave that ball potential energy …
      Maybe check the video ‘what is a field?’, and then ‘what is an electric field?’. That could help.
      A field is not an object, so cannot be directly observed as such (like with a camera), only its effects on what is positioned in the field. Some actually think that fields are just an abstract mathematical tool useful to model the world around us (I am among them, but only as far as classical physics is concerned).
      You had good questions, well-constructed, that show Curiosity. Continue digging!

      It is just like uniform motion is un detectable. But acceleration is detectable. Only right when the fields are constant . Varying electric and magnetic fields are detectable from a relatively stationary frame of reference to those.

    I have wondered this for a while. Why does it matter that the positive charge, q+, moves relative to the positive charges in the wire? For example, if we were to keep q+ stationary with respect to the wire, the electrons would still move relative to q+ and therefore length contraction should still occur. In your example with the bicycle and the table, there were only two objects, you and the table. Why not with just the two objects, q+ and the electrons in the wire?

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy
      @PhysicsMadeEasy  ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Hello Spencer,
      Very good comment.
      While I was working on the script of the video, I asked myself a similar question : If the wire with no electron flow is neutral for a moving test charge, how come it is still neutral when a current is flowing. It is true that what I say in the video suggests otherwise. It didn’t stop me from posting because all other lectures and videos I saw on the topic didn’t seem to consider this question. Even Feynman, in his famous lectures, presents a special case, and just evades the question. I even asked chat gpt4, and it kept answering me in circle, haha !
      I’ve been thinking about it, and I realised that the issue is that charge q+ is going much faster than the electrons : The emergence of magnetic effects become significant only for relativistic speeds of the test charge q+.
      Imagine you accelerate a proton (the test charge) in vacuum with a simple 9V battery. I calculated that the speed for a proton would be in the tens of thousands of m/s (roughly 42 km/s), and for an electron in the millions (roughly 1800 km/s). While the drift velocity of electrons in the wire electrons is tiny (a few mm per second).
      What actually counts is the difference of velocities perceived by the test charge between positive charges and negative charges in the cable. The effect of this tiny difference (= drift velocity) at small non-relativistic velocities is insignificant, but has a significant effect when the speed of the test charge becomes relativistic :
      At relativistic speeds, If you change the speed of the particle, that change will lead to a difference of length contraction for positive and negative charges that is significant.
      At low speeds, If you change the speed of the particle, that change will lead to a difference of length contraction for positive and negative charges that is so insignificant, that the cable can be considered as remaining neutral.
      The example on the video is more of a thought experiment, reality as it is, would have been very difficult to represent accurately in an animation… I should have discussed this in the video, but I believe this would have provided more confusion than clarity… (my videos are intended to provide the viewer with a first step towards a knowledge that they can then develop by themselves…).
      Best,

    3:09 In our example, at the level of charge little q, the magnetic field is going away from you: that is, "into the page".
    Several questions:
    What does "level" mean here?
    Why is charge q called "little", what does "little" imply?
    "Is going away from you" What do you mean by going away from me?
    What does "into the page" mean? What is the page?

      Hi Omer
      What does "level" mean here?
      It means at the position of little q (You know I am French right? In French we can say that - but I agree, it doesn't translate well in English - Lesson learned!)
      Why is charge q called "little", what does "little" imply?
      little q refers to the size of the letter. q is "little q" and usually represents a test charge. Q is "big Q", and usually the charge at the source of an electric field
      "Is going away from you" What do you mean by going away from me?
      What does "into the page" mean? What is the page?
      these expressions refer to the direction of a vector. For example the vector velocity can be directed to the right, to the left, up , down , but we live in a 3D world: the velocity vector could also be directed away from the observer or towards the observer.
      When you see a cross in a circle, that represents an arrow going away from you (you see the feathers of the arrow): it means you the viewer see the arrow going towards / into the screen (or into the page).
      Alternatively, the arrow could be going towards you, so it is going out of the screen (or out of the page). It is represented by a dot in a circle (you see the tip of the arrow pointing at you)
      I hope this helps!

    I extend my gratitude for your earnest endeavor to elucidate the nature of magnetic fields. However, I must assert that, in my estimation, our grasp of what magnetic fields *are* remains profoundly deficient. While we have succeeded in characterizing their behavior with admirable precision through a panoply of equations and models, the ontological essence of these enigmatic fields continues to elude our understanding. The classical framework, for instance, conceptualizes magnetic field lines not as entities endowed with intrinsic particulate substance-such as the atoms or subatomic particles that constitute matter-but as purely abstract constructs. These lines serve as an expedient heuristic, a visual and mathematical representation of the directionality and magnitude of magnetic influence within a given spatial domain. Their depiction illustrates the behavior of magnetic phenomena, such as the forces emanating from a magnet or electric current, but refrains from offering any substantive insight into their underlying nature. These field lines are devoid of tangible substance, existing instead as an abstraction employed to render the otherwise intangible dynamics of magnetic fields comprehensible. They elegantly represent the directional vector of magnetic force, radiating outward from the magnet's so-called "north pole" and looping back to its "south pole," thereby forming continuous closed loops. Within this framework, the density of the lines is indicative of the field's intensity: regions where the lines are densely clustered signify a stronger magnetic influence, whereas sparsely distributed lines suggest a diminished field strength. Yet, for all its utility in describing magnetic behavior, this classical interpretation falls conspicuously short of addressing the fundamental *substance* of the magnetic field itself. It invites us to ponder whether the magnetic field possesses an underlying particulate or quantum structure-or whether its essence lies in an entirely different domain of physical reality that our current conceptual frameworks are ill-equipped to grasp. In examining the nature of magnetic fields, I find that while our mathematical frameworks and experimental observations effectively describe their behavior, the fundamental essence of what magnetic fields *are* remains shrouded in mystery. The classical model, which uses magnetic field lines as a conceptual tool, offers valuable insight into how these forces behave but stops short of explaining their intrinsic substance or composition. Magnetic field lines, though essential for visualizing and predicting magnetic phenomena, are purely abstract constructs without physical substance. They cannot be measured or isolated as discrete components but instead represent the field's direction and strength around a magnet or current. This abstraction is instrumental in understanding behaviors such as attraction, repulsion, and flux, yet it does not address the deeper question of what generates the field itself. The classical visualization depicts magnetic field lines as emerging from a magnet's north pole, looping through space, and returning to the south pole before completing the circuit within the magnet. While this model effectively demonstrates the continuity and directional nature of magnetic fields, it sheds no light on the underlying mechanism or composition of these fields. Similarly, the density of field lines as an indicator of field strength-denser for stronger fields and sparser for weaker ones-remains a human-centric model of interpretation rather than a revelation of physical reality. Classical physics treats magnetic fields as emergent phenomena, arising from the movement of electric charges and the magnetic moments of particles like electrons. Maxwell's equations, while extraordinarily accurate in describing this emergent behavior, offer no explanation of the field's fundamental substance. Even quantum field theory, which views magnetic fields as part of the larger electromagnetic field governed by quantum electrodynamics, focuses on interactions and force carriers like photons rather than the ontological nature of magnetism itself. This leaves us in a position where we can effectively describe and harness magnetic phenomena but remain unable to define their true essence. The gap between behavior and being underscores the limitations of both classical and quantum frameworks and invites speculation that the ultimate nature of magnetic fields may lie beyond our current understanding, possibly within principles or dimensions yet to be discovered. This gives me an idea which leaves me with questions.
    The idea is directly harnessing magnetic field lines as a source of pure magnetic energy, without converting it into electricity, represents a revolutionary shift in energy utilization. Traditional energy systems rely on converting magnetic energy into electrical energy, often through mechanical processes like the rotation of turbines or the induction of electric currents. This new approach, however, envisions tapping into the inherent energy of magnetic fields themselves, treating them as a direct and usable energy source. In the current framework, magnetic field lines, typically regarded as abstract tools for visualizing magnetic forces, are reimagined as real carriers of energy. By interacting directly with these field lines, it may be possible to extract and utilize their embedded energy without the intermediary step of generating electricity. This approach calls for the development of advanced systems capable of engaging with magnetic flux in its raw form to harvest its energy directly. One potential method involves manipulating and concentrating magnetic flux. Techniques such as magnetic flux compression could confine field lines into smaller spaces, thereby intensifying their energy and making it more accessible. Another possibility lies in designing magnetic circuits capable of sustaining and amplifying magnetic energy flow, effectively creating a closed-loop system where energy is continuously maintained and utilized without conversion into electrical form. Specialized devices could be engineered to interact with magnetic fields, applying methods like flux trapping or compression to harness their intrinsic energy. These systems could power machinery, drive mechanical operations, or perform tasks using the raw properties of magnetic fields, bypassing the need for electrical transformation. Such devices would focus on capturing the energy stored within magnetic field lines and directly utilizing it in its original magnetic state. This concept opens up a realm of possibilities, suggesting that magnetic energy itself, rather than the electrical energy derived from it, could serve as a primary energy source. By circumventing conventional energy-generation methods-such as combustion, turbine rotation, or electrical conversion-this approach could pave the way for entirely new technologies and systems powered by the intrinsic properties of magnetic fields. If realized, it would mark a transformative advancement in the way energy is harnessed and utilized.
    My erudite colleague, I propose that we reexamine the prevailing paradigm regarding magnetic field lines, wherein magnetism is purportedly generated by the synergistic confluence of electrons' intrinsic spin, orbital angular momentum, and charge. Nevertheless, our extant models posit that magnetic field lines serve merely as abstract, heuristic devices, facilitating visualization of these fields, whereas, in reality, they constitute tangible, physical entities. The flaw in our current understanding lies in the oversimplification of magnetism's underlying mechanisms. The electron spin and orbital angular momentum model, though efficacious in certain contexts, fails to provide a comprehensive explication of magnetic field generation. Furthermore, the dichotomy between classical electromagnetism and quantum mechanics precipitates inconsistencies, rendering our present framework inadequate.
    Permit me to elucidate the specific lacunae in our current models:
    1. *Reificational Inadequacy*: Magnetic field lines are reified as abstract constructs, rather than acknowledged as physical entities.
    2. *Observational Incongruity*: The non-observability of magnetic field lines, in contradistinction to electric field lines, raises fundamental questions.
    3. *Theoretical Incoherence*: The prevailing model struggles to provide a seamless integration with quantum mechanics.
    In light of these limitations, I suggest we reconsider alternative perspectives:
    1. *Magnetic Field Lines as Physical Entities*: Reconceive magnetic field lines as tangible, physical structures.
    2. *Quantum Vortex Dynamics*: Envision magnetic fields as comprising quantized vortices, analogous to fluid dynamics.
    3. *Magnetic Monopole Theory*: Postulate the existence of magnetic monopoles, providing a more comprehensive understanding of magnetism.
    In conclusion, my esteemed colleague, I propose that we revisit the fundamental assumptions underlying our current models and explore alternative frameworks to rectify the existing lacunae.

      Hi,
      This was a long read. I had to skim some parts: so please forgive any misunderstanding my words might convey:
      I agree, the nature of magnetic fields is still not entirely understood, but neither is the true nature of an electron, nor the nature of space, and all other things that we perceive as reality.
      Physics is aimed at explaining how the universe works, not why it works that way… Maybe, one day, at the turn of a fundamental discovery, our paradigm will change, but for now, we just try to find patterns from observation, from these patterns, develop theories which predict other phenomena and then test these theories by verifying their predictions.
      A few comments that come to mind relatively to the lacunae of current models:
      2: electric lines are abstract constructs too… the difference is the frame of reference of the observer. And yes we can observe magnetic field lines (just spray magnetic material powder on some non-frictionless paper placed in a magnetic field…)
      L3: yes, and in reference to what I suggested, this not only true for Magnetic fields, but for all (fundamental) physics…
      Oh, and regarding your proposition of magnetic only engine… (Magnetic Energy --> Mechanical Energy), well you need first to show that magnetism can be considered in total disconnection with electric charges… good luck with that 😉!

    Magnetic fields emerge from an electric field feeding back in the opposite direction. This is why there are no monopoles. Standing waves "emerge" from traveling waves when two traveling waves of the same frequency, amplitude, and polarization superimpose and travel in opposite directions. This process is called interference and results in the wave energies either combining or canceling each other out. The resulting wave appears to stand still (i.e., magnetism), but it's actually made up of traveling waves that bounce back and forth.

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy
      @PhysicsMadeEasy  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Paul. because in the example, the observer is moving along with the electrons, so their relative velocity (= difference of velocities between electrons and observer) is less than at rest, thus the distance between electrons seen from the observer increases.

    • @Paulfly
      @Paulfly ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you professor. Given the test Q is static. Assuming no current flow thru the cable, the nominal distance between electrons is same as protons, which is d0. When the cable moves upward with V1 relative to test Q, from the test Q’ view, distance between electrons and protons becomes d1. When applied voltage, the electrons move downward with V2 which is relative to the protons. if V2 is equal to 2 times of v1, then relative to the test Q, electrons is moving downward with V1 relative to the test Q. Thus the distance between electrons to the test Q will be still d1. Am I correct…

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy
      @PhysicsMadeEasy  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Paulfly Hello Paul,
      Yes you are correct, if V2=-2V1, the length contraction for both protons and electrons would be the same, thus, positive and negative charge densities in perspective of charge q+ should be the same, so no net force.
      But in my video there is a little imprecision… (which occurs in all lectures I have seen up to now about that, even Feynman’s !): The effect becomes significant at relativistic speeds for the charge q+. So the situation you propose would not really happen.
      Imagine you accelerate a proton (the test charge) in vacuum with a simple 9V battery. I calculated that the speed for a proton would be in the tens of thousands of m/s (roughly 42 km/s), and for an electron in the millions (roughly 1800 km/s). While the drift velocity of electrons in the wire electrons is tiny (a few mm per second).
      What actually counts is the difference of perceived velocities between positive charges and negative charges in the cable. This tiny difference at small (non-relativistic) velocities is insignificant, but has a significant effect when the speed of the test charge becomes relativistic (look at the structure of the length contraction formula).

      The same way!
      An electron spins, left or right. An electron is also a ball of charge, so you get a loop of current... thus a magnetic field.
      if you have two electrons of opposite spins, they pair up and the two magnetic fields cancel. Magnetic materials are those which have a structure such as all electron spins cannot pair up..
      Now this, what I wrote here is just a pure interpolation... As it is the magnetic field that is generated by an electron that makes us think that they spin... (reverse thinking).
      Check the video about magnetic dipole moment, especially the part at the very end of the video. I discuss this.

    This video brings to mind something that has had me puzzled from the start: "THAT 12 YEAR-LONG GAP BETWEEN THE DISCOVERY THAT CURRENT PRODUCES MAGNETIC FIELDS, UNTIL THE DISCOVERY THAT MAGNETIC FIELDS CAN PRODUCE CURRENTS"
    When the 1st discovery was announced, then, INSTANTLY, (as a Cal-Tech physicist put it), "all scientists immediately ran to their labs to prove the the reverse was also true. i.e. 'current can be made to flow by a mag. field'. Then 12 YEARS went by with no success!!.
    How can this be?? It should have the same day!
    They set up B-fields and their conducting wires connected to galvanometers and started working tirelessly, putting wires in B-fields while watching the current sensors.
    Although MOTION of the wire was required, there had to be moments where they moved the wires into the field....even if they placed the wires into the field space BEFORE turning on the current, the detector would have jumped.
    These work tables were 'covered' with all kinds of current sources, switches, coils, detectors, etc.
    Your thoughts??
    Thanks for the great ..as usual..video!
    --dALE
    PS, one other thing:
    I have seen all the physics of forces on charges moving in B-fields...mostly charged particles and current-carrying wires...But I have been looking for details the physics of an energetic spark in a B-field. IOW: how the charges and currents in a spark channel differ compared to a current-carrying wire. I would wonder how the F=BIL equation would be written for a free arc.

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy
      @PhysicsMadeEasy  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hello Marc,
      In your comment you ask if Magnetism is a flow of electron : It is not, it emerges around a flow of charges (in the case of a metallic wire, these charges are carried by electrons).
      Magnetism is not a force either... Magnetism is the subsection of physics that studies magnetic phenomena.
      Magnetic forces appear when you place a magnetic dipole (a magnet) in an external magnetic field (created by another magnet). The N gets pulled to the S of the magnet creating the field, and the S to the N , so it makes the magnet you placed in the field turn: The force is actually a pair of 'turning force' a torque. I have a video that discusses this in detail here:

      You are correct in saying that the electric potential is the potential energy that 1 unit of charge would have, but what you are missing is that this happens only when that charge is placed at a position having that electric potential. Intrinsically it is not the same thing:
      An electric potential is a property of a position: it tells you the PE that a charge would have when placed at that position, per unit charge (PE = q * V).
      Potential energy is a property of an object (How much PE it has)

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy

      Hello,
      Let’s consider your example and name wires A and B. The currents in the wires are parallel and in the same direction (let’s imagine downwards).
      What are the electrons in wire A « seeing » while they move ?
      From they perspective, they see the electrons in wire B at rest. No length contraciton there. But they also see the positively charged metallic ions moving upwards… Positive charges will appear to get denser, and wire B will appear positive, so the electrons moving in wire A will be attracted by wire B.
      Repeat this reasoning for the electrons moving in wire B, and you’ll see that these are attracted to Wire A…
      Of course this is a simplified view, within each cable things are a little more complex than this, but you get the general idea…

Does it bend or twist space time or do these particles exists on a different superimposed plane of existence with it's own rules, and/or are there several planes of existence superimposed on each other that are unique to each sub particle type and each plane of existence has it own rules to interact with other planes? maybe we may never know.

      If you dig deeper, like quantum mechanics does, then fields appear to become real, although these are not fields of force but as you say , fields for which a disturbance is perceived as an elementary particle (or more precisely by the effect of its set of properties).

    I decided that this must be proof that the water drop had its own gravity. Later I heard it was due to skin-effect. Then my mind fashioned a new picture for gravity. I then postulated that the force that makes the earth shaped as a ball is skin-effect, and the atmosphere (in concentration bands) is held around this ball by the same effect. All creatures on the surface of the ground is held in place by the densest layer of the atmosphere.

      Yes, it is an 'agreement', as suggested by the name 'conventional' current.
      If you take a piece of metal (like a piece of wire), the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons, thus the charge density is zero. That doesn't change for the observer at rest if the electrons are moving uniformly in the wire. Finally, because the cable is electrically neutral, it will not generate a net electric field at the level of an external test charge at rest, so there will be no electric force on the latter.

In addition, from Special relativity we can prove that when charge and current in a wire is flowing, the magnetic force is just electric force, but I heard from the word of mouth that from electron spin arises magnetic pole responsible for the magnetic behavior of an element and also ferromagnets, antiferromagnets and paramagnetism. It appears that magnetic field is completely different force. Would you please cast off few lines on that too?

      Maybe you haven't seen the 'hidden' part of the video about magnetic dipoles... At the end, after the credits, I improvised a discussion about this.
      An electron is spinning, and an electron is a ball of charge, thus in an electron there are loops of currents, that generate a magnetic force of the same origin than the one I discuss in the magnetic field video.
      Moreover, If you look at the shape of the field of an electron, you realise it is a dipole (with a N and a S), not a monopole...
      Check the video, it might clarify a few things

    to use Lorentz contraction the charge velocity must be in the order of the light velocity. The electron velocity in a cable is too small (cm per second). So how do you justify this use?

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy
      @PhysicsMadeEasy  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes but a charge moving next to the cable will have a velocity being a significant fraction of c. At these velocities of the moving charge, the differential between positive and negative charges velocities in the cable, which is small in absolute, should become significant in the perspective of that moving charge.

    Because motion is relative and I'm special relativity one cannot distinguish who is moving you would see a moving object length contracting.
    Hence, even for an observer not moving relative to the cable the moving electrons contract and so do the moving gaps between them.

      Hi, Length contraction occurs when there is a difference between the velocity of the observer and of what is observed. The direction doesn't matter (as expressed by the square on the v in the length contraction formula).
      If an observer, moves in the opposite direction than the observed object, the speed difference between the two increases, thus length contraction becomes even more pronounced.

      Hello Mahir, to find a coherent answer to your question, you need to think about the source of the oscillating electric field in an EM wave... It will be an oscillating charge (i.e a charge in motion). it generates an oscillating electric field, and because the charge is moving, a magnetic field emerges too, that will propagate along the oscillating electric field).

    This effect has nothing to do with Relativistic length contraction. If a positive charge moves parallel to the wire at the same speed as the electrons flowing due to current in the wire, then the current creates a magnetic field that generates a force on the moving positive charge, causing it to move away from the wire according to the Lorentz force law. From the perspective of the moving positive charge, it thinks it is standing still, and that the wire generating a magnetic field is moving. According to Maxwells equation's, a moving magnetic field creates an electric field that creates a force on the charge causing it to move away from the wire.
    Relativistic length contraction and time dilation are optical illusions and are not real. This is proved in the following way. The speed of light is not a constant as once thought, and this has now been proved by Electrodynamic theory and by Experiments done by many independent researchers. The results clearly show that light propagates instantaneously when it is created by a source, and reduces to approximately the speed of light in the farfield, about one wavelength from the source, and never becomes equal to exactly c. This corresponds to the phase speed, group speed, and information speed. Any theory assuming the speed of light is a constant, such as Special Relativity and General Relativity are wrong, and it has implications to Quantum theories as well. So this fact about the speed of light affects all of Modern Physics. Often it is stated that Relativity has been verified by so many experiments, how can it be wrong. Well no experiment can prove a theory, and can only provide evidence that a theory is correct. But one experiment can absolutely disprove a theory, and the new speed of light experiments proving the speed of light is not a constant is such a proof. So what does it mean? Well a derivation of Relativity using instantaneous nearfield light yields Galilean Relativity. This can easily seen by inserting c=infinity into the Lorentz Transform, yielding the GalileanTransform, where time is the same in all inertial frames. So a moving object observed with instantaneous nearfield light will yield no Relativistic effects, whereas by changing the frequency of the light such that farfield light is used will observe Relativistic effects. But since time and space are real and independent of the frequency of light used to measure its effects, then one must conclude the effects of Relativity are just an optical illusion.
    Since General Relativity is based on Special Relativity, then it has the same problem. A better theory of Gravity is Gravitoelectromagnetism which assumes gravity can be mathematically described by 4 Maxwell equations, similar to to those of electromagnetic theory. It is well known that General Relativity reduces to Gravitoelectromagnetism for weak fields, which is all that we observe. Using this theory, analysis of an oscillating mass yields a wave equation set equal to a source term. Analysis of this equation shows that the phase speed, group speed, and information speed are instantaneous in the nearfield and reduce to the speed of light in the farfield. This theory then accounts for all the observed gravitational effects including instantaneous nearfield and the speed of light farfield. The main difference is that this theory is a field theory, and not a geometrical theory like General Relativity. Because it is a field theory, Gravity can be then be quantized as the Graviton.
    Lastly it should be mentioned that this research shows that the Pilot Wave interpretation of Quantum Mechanics can no longer be criticized for requiring instantaneous interaction of the pilot wave, thereby violating Relativity. It should also be noted that nearfield electromagnetic fields can be explained by quantum mechanics using the Pilot Wave interpretation of quantum mechanics and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle (HUP), where Δx and Δp are interpreted as averages, and not the uncertainty in the values as in other interpretations of quantum mechanics. So in HUP: Δx Δp = h, where Δp=mΔv, and m is an effective mass due to momentum, thus HUP becomes: Δx Δv = h/m. In the nearfield where the field is created, Δx=0, therefore Δv=infinity. In the farfield, HUP: Δx Δp = h, where p = h/λ. HUP then becomes: Δx h/λ = h, or Δx=λ. Also in the farfield HUP becomes: λmΔv=h, thus Δv=h/(mλ). Since p=h/λ, then Δv=p/m. Also since p=mc, then Δv=c. So in summary, in the nearfield Δv=infinity, and in the farfield Δv=c, where Δv is the average velocity of the photon according to Pilot Wave theory. Consequently the Pilot wave interpretation should become the preferred interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. It should also be noted that this argument can be applied to all fields, including the graviton. Hence all fields should exhibit instantaneous nearfield and speed c farfield behavior, and this can explain the non-local effects observed in quantum entangled particles.

      Well done Manu, I had the same thought when scripting the video.
      My answer to that is that electric monopoles exist (common electric charges), but not magnetic monopoles. That means that a single system, whatever its size, cannot have a magnetic charge. This is also implied in Maxwell's 2nd equation. In other words, we are not in a chicken and the egg situation: Magnetic fields cannot be the starting point, electric fields are.
      Of course, there is always the idea that according to Dirac, magnetic monopoles must exist in the universe, (even if there would be only one) .These must be extremely rare because despite much efforts, none have been detected yet.

    This makes no sense. If the observer is moving relative to the cable, it is the length of the cable, as a whole, which would seem to contract. All of the charges within the cable would contract with it. It is the electrons and not the space between them moving. The observer on the train and the observer on the platform might not agree on the length of a section of track, but they must agree on the number of rotations the wheels make when crossing that section of the track. If the number of electrons and protons are the same in each section of wire, that must hold true in all frames.

    • @PhysicsMadeEasy

      Hello Naomi,
      I didn’t say that the number of charges in the cable changed depending on the frame of reference, just that their density was perceived larger… Maybe you referring to the illustrations where you do not see the length of the cable contract because it is longer than the screen and homogeneous. Yet, in essence, you are correct, 1 meter of cable will appear to shrink for a moving frame of reference, and thus the density of charges within it.
      On the other hand, I am not sure your analogy with the train wheels is pertinent. Imagine Bob on the train at a velocity close to the speed of light, and Alice motionless on the station’s platform. For both, the number of rotations for the train wheels to go from A to B is the same. We agree:
      It is the circumference of the wheels that change (distance covered per rotation) because the horizontal axis of the wheel would appear smaller in Alice’s perspective (the wheels would appear elliptical). The factor by which the wheel horizontal axis is smaller for Alice compared to Bob will naturally be the same than the contraction perceived for the distance AB. Another way to say that the number of rotations will be the same for both observers.

      The relativistic effect is extremely tiny, and it disturbs in an extremely tiny way a balance between huge amounts of charges (the positive and negative charges within the same a cable...). So the effect becomes measureable.
      Please be more moderate in your choice of words when you do not agree.

    You only just barely touched on it, but I think your explanation of the magnetic field generation in a permanent magnet was quite incomplete, and most likely not correct. Heaviside said the field of a permanent magnet was a point-source phenomenon, not a summation of a bunch of tiny molecular "movements".

      A magnetic field can never be a punctual source. The source of a magnetic field must be a dipole...
      Some of Fermi's calculations show that magnetic monopoles should exist, but never has one been observed despite a lot of experimental efforts... Some believe that if such monopoles do exist, these are so rare that there might not even be one in the observable universe....
      Check my video on magnetic dipolar moment, it should interest you.

      Indeed, he explains equations and the movement of electric forces, but there's no specific definition of what that 'force' is.
      The 'force' can be detected, and it can do what we want it to do, but exactly what it is, remains a mystery.

    The magnetic field is a CIRCULAR feedback loop. It can NOT be defined simply by saying it is a force manifesting from a moving frame of reference or that it somehow relates to electrons moving around the atom (another wrong concept) on the atomic level. The magnetic field has all of the geometric properties of a standing wave (2-directional) with it's magnetic field vectors being antiparallel. It is this WRONG view of magnetism that has persisted since special relativity was developed in 1905 that prevents physicists from solving the Theory of Everything. While not discussed in this video, it is also wrong to view magnetism as a circular dimension. String theory has the principle of superposition built right into its concept yet theoretical physicists have completely ignored this principle as being physically real. Why is that? Why are we ignoring the truth and embracing circular dimensions and making our theories untestable? Are theoretical physicists just afraid to solve the Theory of Everything?

      I embrace alternative views as they allow to take perspective, and sometimes lead to significant advancements. Sometimes....
      In my view, only when many serious scientist from various cultures start to consider an alternative interpretation of reality seriously, I will dig deeper and forge my opinion (a stunning example was Copenhague vs Everett's views when it come to interpreting the collapse of wave function...).
      For now, I am not convinced ;-)
      But keep exploring!

      @@PhysicsMadeEasy Since I am creating a series of videos based on how theoretical physicists need to at least reconsider a different view of magnetism (called The Collapse of Physics) could you tell me how I could better explain this alternative point of view. I am aware of the different articles that discuss that there is a problem over the last 100 years like "On Electromagnetic Induction" by Parry Mason and Domina Eberle Spencer in 1955 in the Journal of the Franklin Institute, Vol. 260. pp.213-226. In February of 1975 Jovan Djuric wrote his article "Spinning Magnetic Fields" in The Journal of Applied Physics. In August of 1995 Pellegrini and Swift wrote "Maxwell's Equations in a Rotating Medium: Is There a Problem?" in The American Journal of Physics.

    No, this isn't correct. And taus certainly are fundamental, as fundamental as muons and electrons. It's complex and well understood how muons transition into taus and vice versa. Not sure if i want to make the effort to explain.

      ​​​​​​​​​@@PhysicsMadeEasyok, listening again 😊 ok, you said a magnetic field is just an electric field from the view of a (relativistic) moving frame of reference 10:03 and you say 1 minute later that magnetic fields are just an emergent phenomena, and not fundamental. And I say taus are the magnetic field particles, not anything else. And muons are the electrical field particles. And that the 3 leptons and their anti particles certainly are fundamental and not simply emergent due to frames of reference. I am trying to consider what to say now because the explanation requires physics that I cannot type here. This is not a correct explanation of the origin of magnetic fields, and there is not only one cause/situation that manifest magnetic fields, and I don't think this is a good forum to discuss it because there is just too much ground to establish to understand these things in a comprehensive manner. This is a vast topic that includes the relationships between leptons, particle production, decay, photons, neutrinos, and specific energies. I forgot what the question was and need to view the video again. I really just wanted to make these little points. That it's not so simple as the video says.

      ​​​​​@@PhysicsMadeEasyafter reviewing the video again, I'd say that a lot of assumptions are being made, such as the nature of metallic bonds being electrostatic due to currents (I know that's the theory, but i don't think it's that simple, I haven't seen any calculations that explain that; I call that pretending to know what we don't truly understand) and that the relationships between lepton production and decay (and photons and electromagnetic energies and neutrinos) is not easily described, and varies with particular situations/conditions. This is very deep and complex stuff where the physics community doesn't know as much as they claim to know. We're only beginning to understand these things, and those that truly grasp it are few and not well recognized.

      ​​​​​@@PhysicsMadeEasyI'll just say this, something everyone can understand: a photon, a particle of light, is a discrete electric+magnetic field bound together. The “mass” of a photon is the momentum contained in its electric and magnetic fields, so .. I leave that for a reader to stick in their pipe and smoke 😆 no metal cable there. No electrons there. And there are no magnetic monopoles, but electrical charges do exist independently of each other; eg, free electrons.
      Fundamental particles (electron, muon, tau, the 6 quarks, and their anti particles) exist as mass confined to 2 dimensions, which when positively curved through the 3rd dimension, result in a contraction of spacetime, which is the origin of gravitational field.
      The only forces in the universe are the electromagnetic force, and those due to distortions of space. Matter possesses charge. Energy is stored in the electric and magnetic fields of matter as a consequence of its charge and the motion of its charge. I agree to that. Current is a mass with kinetic energy and field energy components, but a photon comprises only energy.
      I say mass-energy must always be preserved, and is not altered by perception due to relativistic frames of reference. That mass-energy is real and tangible and independent of someone's perspective.
