Deep dive into the known forces

Ғылым және технология

Popular science explanations of the standard model usually describe four forces (strong nuclear, electromagnetism, weak nuclear, and gravity). They also claim that some of the forces are stronger than others. What they don’t tell you is that all of those claims are only valid for distances comparable to the radius of a proton. For different size scales, the order of the strength of the forces can be wildly different.
In this video, Dr. Don does a much deeper dive into the topic. Prepare to be amazed.

    Deeper dives! You guys are one of the few channels with talent qualified to explain these concepts in more detail. Almost any science journalism channel can cover the broad concepts, and I feel it would be a waste of your expertise to rehash it. In particular this video was excellent in clarifying my understanding of forces, and I've watched countless videos on the subject (as well as read several texts on it). For example, I had no idea that to escape the strong force, particles actually change into others which aren't affected by its influence. That is a concept I've not encountered before, and I appreciate it!

    The changing into other particles behavior is at the heart of the LHC collision experiments. They smash protons together, and when Quarks get ripped apart from each other the energy is converted into a "zoo" of new particles which hit the detectors. That's how I understand it, at least, as a layman.

    4:50 One should mention that for _macroscopic_ objects, the negative and positive charges are usually almost exactly balanced, leaving only a _very_ small net charge in total. Hence for macroscopic objects, the ratio of charge to mass is ___much___ smaller than for electrons or protons, and hence the force of gravity is usually more important than the electrostatic force. (That's the point which all proponents of the "electric universe" conveniently ignore.)
