I proposed a frame dragging force formula: F=SJmW/r^2
(S=2G/c^2, J=anular momentum of central spin body, m=peripheral orbiting mass, W=peripheral object angular velocity[relative to central body's spin angular velocity], r=distance)

Please see Dr. Landau's book "The classical theory of field"! He gave a deduction about frame-dragging force.

All spin mass creates frame-dragging force to let the surrounding space-time rotation.

Rest mass causes gravity, spin mass causes frame-dragging; rest charge causes electricity, spin charge causes magnetism!

No there isn't a frame-dragging force.

Derived from the Kerr metric: in geometric units.

L/m = (R^2)dphi/dTau - (2M^2/r)dt/dTau

Where:

R^2 = r^2 + M^2 + 2M^3/r

And r = M for the extreme Kerr.

Now set angular momentum, L/m, at zero and solve for dphi/dt

dphi/dt = 2M^2/rR^2

Making the substitutions for r and R^2 you get

dphi/dt = 1/2M

That is the angular rotation rate of an object free falling towards an extreme Kerr, with zero angular momentum. This object in free fall [with no forces acting upon it] will be frame-dragged into a Kerr orbit at r = M for this extreme case.

The idea of a frame dragging force is nonsensical.

You sure are ignorant. Frame dragging isn't a force. It's not a force just because you say so. It's the Lense-Thirring effect derived from general relativity. How could a PHD candidate not understand the importance of defining terms in physics? This entire thread boils down to you trolling for attention. You couldn't possibly be a PHD candidate in physics and be so ignorant about something as basic as the importance of defining terms in any scientific regimen.

Electricity and magnetism are related by Lorentz transformations. The metric of GR is invariant under Lorentz transforms, so no new forces arise when you do a boost or rotation on it.

Learn about the symmetries before you make claims about it.

No, Dr. Landau has derived frame-dragging energy.

Thus, frame-dragging force can also be derived!

Brucep, if you aren't aware Wan is a PhD candidate in biology.

Personally I find that being a PhD candidate in one topic (which in my case is physics) doesn't really give me the time I'd need to devote to be able to do research in an entirely different topic, say biology.

What is geodetic effect?

Spacetime curvature

Why is there geodetic effect?

Gravity: the Newton-Einstein force

Similarly: What is frame-dragging effect?

Spacetime rotation

Thus, why is there frame-dragging effect?

No force, no effect.

I don't find it so hard to believe.
1. I've seen people with doctorates spouting equally worthless pseudoscience, sometimes even in their own fields. Like Russell Blaylock, MD, for example. Or the one actual biologist who willingly signed that petition of Michael Behe's claiming they believe in creationism (the rest of the signatories either were not biologists, were not scientists, or didn't know what it was they were signing).
2. His grammatical idiosyncrasies, while very crank-like, are similar to those displayed by other Asian-language speakers I've encountered, making him seem more irrational than he really is. Not that this is any mean feat, as this guy is certainly quite irrational.
3. I seem to recall seeing some evidence of him actually being a post-grad at some point, although for the life of me I can't recall where I saw it.
4. In my (admittedly limited) experience with the scientific community, biologists and medical practitioners were the two groups most likely to produce crankery, with psychologists close behind.

A friend of mine who is also doing a PhD in physics had an email forwarded to him by his mother from one of her friends. It was a 50+ page 'paper' on a theory of everything which claimed much the same as Sylwester, to having a bunch of particle mass formulas which are accurate to many decimal places and the references were mostly high school textbooks. The mathematics was either remedial or wrong, the logic terrible and the results botched.

The author is a medical professional. A consultant in a major hospital who has been involved in a great many clinical trials and has medical papers to his name. Clearly he's rational when it comes to medicial procedures and logic but he's utterly wacko and stupid when it comes to physics.

If he were my doctor I'd ask for a different one, put it like that.

I have a similar anecdote which I think you'll find amusing (if not particularly surprising).

My fiancee works in a hospital, alongside a handful of doctors. Occasionally, we are invited to parties and barbecues hosted by one of the these doctors. At one such event I was discussing the anti-vaccination movement with one doctor when another butted in to assert the validity of this movement. Me being who I am, I confronted him about it and we got into a long discussion in which he was cordial, but quite insistent. Eventually I managed to corner him into asserting that studies which show no correlation between the MMR vaccines and autism were flawed because the MMR vaccine causes autism, while he knew the MMR vaccine causes autism because the studies showing otherwise were flawed. (He used a similar set of circular logic on his justification for believing in the study that asserted a positive correlation. It was correct because the vaccine causes autism, and the vaccine causes autism because this study was correct.)
The surprising thing is that out of 10 doctors who were present and involved to some degree in this discussion, only 3 saw this circular logic for what it was. Most of the others still did not believe in the anti-vaccine claims, but insisted that those claims were justified and worthy of consideration, while 1 or 2 were actually convinced by this man's circular logic.

Needless to say, I and the three who agreed with me were in agreement on two other points: First, that we never wanted to be treated by those who were gullible enough to fall for this kinds of reasoning, and second, that it is truly a shame when a self-admitted layman can display more medical acuity in any matter than a practicing doctor, which is the more important point from where I sit. This is not because I'm so smart or well-educated, but precisely because of my lack of medical expertise. I may know a little more than your average Joe about medicine, but that's nothing compared to the level of knowledge this doctor who argued with me had.

Not exactly. F=dp/dt where p=momentum.
At low speeds (Newtonian mechanics) p=mv, so F=mdv/dt=ma
At higher speeds p=mv/sqrt(1-(v/c)^2) so, things get a lot more complicated:

F=m*d/dt (v/sqrt(1-v/c)^2)

Oh, yes we can; Planets rotate producing an equatorial bulge. This bulge creates a gravitational bias, resulting in orbiting moons being 'tugged' into place ... some eventually collide to form ring systems.

p.s;- this is not always the case, as our moon simply does not orbit in this equatorial manner.

Hello, NO YOU CAN'T!

The gravity formul is F=GMm/r^2 not F=G2piRMm/r^2

The diameter of earth won't affect gravity on moon or rocks of ring.

If a moon A is at r distance from earth's north pole and another moon B is at the same r distance from earth's equator, they will receive the same gravity because earth's mass is the same M.

Your equator bulge won't affect gravity to attract the moons!

Thus, I am afraid you are wrong!

You must enjoy being contrary and dense. Regardless of all the ignorant stuff you've said [loads] you just don't get to call frame dragging a force. It's an effect derived from Einstein's model of gravity not from any nonsense you've dreamed up. The effect is associated with free float frames not accelerated frames.

Hi all.

Just reading through catching up with interesting discussions in my absence.

Had to stop and ask for clarification of this discussion when I recalled that it was settled over a year ago (by prometheus I think) that gravity (warped spacetime) is a force.

So can someone explain the EFFECTUAL (ie 'force' or 'not force') difference between spacetime warped by 'gravity' mechanism and spacetime warped (if it is warped) by 'frame-dragging' mechanism?

Thanks.

I'll be reading through again later today or tomorrow in anticipation of that clarification.

RC;
I think the best way to approach the idea of force is to look at it classically, IOW, classical Fields.

The term "frame dragging" is actually the same a "gravitomagnetism" and is used interchangeably.

So before getting into the almost semantical question of whether a Gravitomagnetic field IS a force; let me ask you an analogous question:

Do we refer to a MAGNETIC field as a force? Do we say a magnetic field IS A FORCE?

Not typically, because many times it does not produce a force. What we do say however, is that A TEST particle, IF it has CHARGE, and if it is MOVING through the magnetic field, ... will EXPERIENCE A FORCE.

IOW, for force to develop, MOTION of a CHARGED particle is necessary; and that motion must have a component transverse to the direction of the field.

....according to the standard Lorentz formula ....(ignoring the electric field)...

F = qV X B .... (where V is the velocity of test charge q; and "X" is the cross product)


LIKEWISE; by analogy; (using the linearized Gravitational equations), the "Gravito-magnetic" field itself is not usually referred to as "a force", since similarly, a test mass must be MOVING through the GM field in order to "experience" a force.

....which can be seen by inspection of the analogous Gravitational Lorentz equation ....which (ignoring the newtonian gravity field) is simply...

F = mV X B(g) ... (where V is velocity of a test mass m; and 'X' is the cross product with the GM field, B(g).

Just like in the electromagnetic case where a stationary charge "feels" no force from a magnetic field, so likewise a stationary mass 'feels' no force from a Gravito-magnetic field...Motion of the test particle is necessary.
Likewise,... motion parallel to the field lines will result in no force; a transverse component of motion is necessary.

Now if someone wants to "call" gravitomagnetism a force or not really doesn't matter to me; (you can call it an ice cream cone if you want), as long as you recognize the above physical relationships. biggrin.gif

Please use maths to prove your theory. Borrowed from AN:


1. Precession of Mercury. It was long known that, even when you take into account all planets and bigger moons, that Newtonian gravity didn't predict the right amount of precession seen in the orbit of Mercury. GR did and it was this evidence which helped turn over all our understanding of gravity.

2. Zeeman emission splittiing. In the 1910s and 1920s it was realised that the colour of emissions of heated elements (elements as in elements of the periodic table) seemed to follow patterns, with definite frequencies coming from each element. Not only that but when you put the heated material into a magnetic field you get differernt colours again, more colours! This is known as Zeeman splitting and it took the development of the electron shell structure of the atom via quantum mechanics to understand. Classical electromagnetism can't explain it.

3. Antimatter is fundamentally a quantum field theory concept, you need both quantum mechanics and special relativity (it was his development of QFT which lead Dirac to predict the existence of antimatter). The interaction between matter and antimatter also requires you to be able to describe virtual particle production, as they contribute to answers.

Your clucking is meaningless if you can't do this.

Hi all.

Just reading through catching up with interesting discussions in my absence.

Had to stop and ask for clarification of this discussion when I recalled that it was settled over a year ago (by prometheus I think) that gravity (warped spacetime) is a force.

So can someone explain the EFFECTUAL (ie 'force' or 'not force') difference between spacetime warped by 'gravity' mechanism and spacetime warped (if it is warped) by 'frame-dragging' mechanism?

Prometheus, since I broadly concur with your treatment of gravity as a 'force' in your discussion with ubavontuba in the relevant LHC thread, I am also interested to see your treatment of that spect I mentioned here. I therefore am waiting for your further treatment of this 'frame-dragging' matter in your usual thorough and informed way so that I can be confident in my own mind about this and related aspects. It will be very helpful to me mate, and will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi brucep. Lucky I was doing a last sweep-through before logging off finally for the day.

I was working from memory when I alluded to that. However, I think the topic heading was "LHC Danger".....it's a long thread but somewhere along prometheus was describing to ubavontuba the basis for considering gravity a 'force'.

I have disabled some of the functions (including Search function etc) in order to safeguard my computer from corruption/viruses on the internet.

But if I may suggest you look into prometheus's POSTING HISTORY around about a year ago or a little earlier, you will come across his exchange with ubavontuba in the "LHC Danger" topic/thread.....and go from there to locate the relevant posts regarding the 'force' issue as pertains to gravity.

OR....you could PM prometheus and get it straight form the horses' mouth as it were!....he might have the relevant exchange/background at his fingertips for you.

Good luck mate! Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance except what is from this old codgers' memory....something which most of my posts depend on most of the time.

Cheers and see ya round!

First of all, I am not against GR. I am against quantum mechanics. Actually, frame-dragging force can be derived from GR. You can also use frame-dragging force to get Mercury procession. Please see Dr. Landau's book.

My atom model can also explain Zeeman effect. It is because electron radius=h'/mc. Thus, spin angular momentum of electron=Iw=2/5h'. Thus, there is interaction between orbit and spin. The question is not hard.

About antimatter! Dirac is just lucky. We can only use conservation of energy to predict there is antimatter. Dirac's negative energy E=-mc^2 is a totally ********.

Frame dragging can only be derived from GR and it's not a force regardless of how many dumb appeals you make to this forum. Based on the dumb crap you post to this forum your atom model must be a load of crank crap.

I also have to say just how ignorant it is to say 'I'm against quantum mechanics'. QM the most empirically verified theoretical model in physics. Just how stupid is it to be against QM? Monumentally ignorant. Any model you would come up with would have to have a 1/1 empirical correspondence with QM, easier to use, and add some new insight into how the universe works. Quit trolling goofball.

You want me to clarify gravity in GR being a force or not?

It depends on your point of view - in four dimensions there is only spacetime curvature and objects follow geodesics. However, we are creatures that live in three dimensions, and from our point of view objects follow curved trajectories which requires a force. Whatever you call it, the result is the same.

I believe people have already pointed out that frame dragging requires GR, and what Wanchung is suggesting is that frame dragging provides an alternative explanation for quantum mechanical stability of the atom. I can see no reason why this should be true and I think we've waited long enough for him to provide proof to conclude there isn't any.

I have highlighted the 'comparative' aspects I need clarified between the two (gravity/frame-dragging) mechanism/effect regarding 'warped/curved space....and if the 'force' aspect in 'gravity' curved space is in any way 'present' in the 'frame-dragged' space (curved or not?).

See what I need to clarify my own thinking on this? I already 'recalled' what your explanation of gravity force per se to ubavontuba at the time, so no need for that again. Its those further comparison aspects I mentioned above that I need now. Thanks for taking the time mate! Be back tomorrow. Cheers!

Thanks for that brucep. However, I nhave read quite a bit about black holes and the associated environmental/inherent aspects. That was quite OK but not what I want here. I would prefer to get prometheus's explanation of 'frame drag' aspects consistent with what he explained to ubavontuba about graviry 'force' aspect. By keeping the same 'source' for comparison it will help me to get a coherent picture of what prometheus pointed out then plus as informed by any difference/similarities etc which prometheus may enlighten me on spoecifically in his own perspective on the matter as so far presented here. Thanks again mate for your trouble. Chheers.

That is frame dragging. The extremal black hole just illustrates the effect at a maximum.

Hi brucep. I know. That is not what I need in this matter. I need the consistent comments of prometheus on the matter here in order that I grasp his perspective on BOTH gravity 'force' and 'frame dragging' 'effect as pertains to 'curved space' in the scenario being presented here by the thread's starter. I wish to keep a consistent view depending on what prometheus has to clarify consistent with what he clarified for ubavontuba as to 'force' aspects. Thanks again for your trouble though mate!

I've got to say that I'm not too familiar with frame dragging. From a very swift reading of the wiki page on frame dragging I'd say that it doesn't deform spacetime in the way that you're thinking. What happens is an inertial frame seems to get pulled along around the rotating object, but this is only visible to certain observers.

Gravity is spacetime curvature

Frame-dragging force is spining spacetime curvature
wanchung
Gravity is rest spacetime curvature.

Frame-dragging force causes the spacetime curvature spining.

Is that clear? RC!
