Metal Solar Lights

Jo Said:

How can a magnet make a metal move if it is just massless photons?

We Answered:

Magnetism is about spinning electrical charges attracting and repelling one another. No one has yet explained satisfactorily how this force is transmitted across empty space. Instead, they offer mathematical descriptions of the effect and claim that the math is the cause.

In an electromagnet, the charges are moving thru a loop of wire; in an atom, they move in orbit around the nucleus. But electrons also spin within their own tiny space, which is like 10,000 times smaller than an atomic nucleus. If two electrons spin in the same direction, they cancel each other's magnetic influence. If the spins don't all cancel, the atom is magnetic.

In my own Fractal Foam Model of Universes, an electron is a pair or group of ethereal shear waves (which move at the speed of light) orbiting one another because of the influence of ethereal pressure waves (a.k.a., dark energy, which move at the speed of gravity, billions of times faster than light). The pressure waves are massless, but like photon's, they do carry momentum; and some of that momentum is transferred to a shear wave when there is a collision. The transfer of momentum between shear waves and pressure waves depends on the relative wave lengths, phase angles and polarities. Each fundamental particle is a chaotic attractor with its own composition of shear waves in a particlular pattern; the electron is one such attractor.

If I could work out the particular configuration of shear waves that make up an electron, I might be able to show mathematically how pressure waves transmit the forces of charge and magnetism. Unfortunately, I am not a mathematician. To properly develop my model, it may be necessary for a mathematician develop a new branch of chaos theory relating to acoustic waves in an infinite expanse of foam.

Eric Said:

Put water into a metal container and warm it up with a light bulb, can you call this as a water solar panel?

We Answered:

No.

You are using energy to run the light bulb.

The word "solar" means "to do with the sun" which an electric light-bulb clearly isn't.
