You never knew theoretical physics could be so simple! Why do things move? Is gravity a fundamental force? Why is the expansion of the universe accelerating? Can quantum mechanics and general relativity be realized as a fully consistent theory? What is wrong with the uncertainty principle? Is spacetime fundamentally continuous or discrete? Is the universe a black hole? How can the laws of physics be derived from one principle? Why does the Eddington value for the deflection of light differ from the Freundlich value in general relativity? What is the origin of mass? Does nature have more than four space-time dimensions? What is the lifetime of a proton? Why the proton radius puzzle so dangerous? Do we have a theory of everything? Is gravity and the laws of physics emergent? Is entropic gravity flawed? Is dark matter responsible for differences in observed and theoretical speed of stars revolving around the centre of galaxies, or it is something else? Why does the zero-point energy of the vacuum not cause a large cosmological constant? What cancels it out? This exciting book considers some of the deepest and most important questions in physics. Enjoy a thrilling intergalactic tour as Balungi Francis redefines the force of gravity and introduces a brave new view of the universe!A percentage of all royalties will go to charity.

    Eugene de Silva
    While the great scientists of the past recognized a need for a multidisciplinary approach, today’s schools often treat math and science as subjects separate from the rest. This not only creates a disinterest among students, but also a potential learning gap once students reach college and then graduate into the workforce.

    University of Texas at Austin My friendship with Freeman Dyson goes back over a half century. My first contact with him goes back to the late 1950s, when I was at the Institute for Advanced Study, and then evolved when I was a consultant at General Atomics in La Jolla, California. Freeman was then trying to design a space ship — the Orion — which would be propelled by atomic bo...

  • The Origin of Gravity and the laws of Physics
    Balungi Francis
    Since it was developed, Newton’s law of gravitation and many other laws of physics cannot be derived from one grand underlying principle. Deriving Newton’s law of gravitation or Einstein general relativity theory, would mean that gravity emerges from something else and that would mean that the only known Newton’s law of universal gravity is no longer a fundamental law of physic...

    It has been a long time to reconcile quantum physics and general relativity. To date, no globally accepted theory has been proposed to explain all physical observations save for the theory herein presented.The current understanding of gravity is based on Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which incorporates his theory of special relativity and deeply modifies the u...

    The universe is full of matter and the attractive force of gravity pulls all matter together.The expansion of the universe has not been slowing due to gravity, as everyone thought, it has been accelerating.Maybe it was a result of a long-discarded version of Einstein’s theory of gravity, one that contained what was called a 'cosmological constant.' Maybe there was some strange ...

  • Prove Physics
    Balungi Francis
    Since high school, I have been rebellious to how physics derivations are presented with difficult and confusing mathematical tools. I am not used to deriving physics laws using the same mathematical tools that our forefathers of physics used (the same found in various physics text books), which I find not only confusing to me but to the entire scientific community who are categ...

    In 1900, the British physicist Lord Kelvin declared "There is nothing new to discover in physics. All that remains is to more accurately measure its quantities" today, hardly anyone would dare say that our knowledge of the universe and everything in it is almost complete. There are still some deficiencies in the standard model of physics, such as the origin of mass, the strong ...
