Forces and the Speed of Light

Forces cause things to accelerate. This means that there is a relationship between inertial matter, space, time and force.

The experience of this is constant for our astronaut, no matter how we manipulate the electric or magnetic force by adding or subtracting photons and neutrinos. Space and time changes in such a way that the astronaut is oblivious to any local change.

If we increase the number of neutrinos, things grow. As a consequence, time slows down.

Since energy is stored as size, the astronaut becomes more massive.

From the equation F = ma, we see that F remains the same because mass and distance increase in proportion to time. Mass, distance and time are all increasing linearly with the increase in neutrinos. Mass multiplied by distance and divided by the square of time is therefore constant.

If we increase the number of photons, things become smaller. Again we see a proportional change between mass, distance and time. Again, we have a constant.

The local observer sees no change in force, no matter what the changes are in the availability of photons and neutrinos.

Another thing the local observer sees no change in is the speed of light.

It follows then that there must be a constant relationship between the speed of light and the electric and magnetic force.

As it happens, that is exactly how things are: The speed of light = 1/sqrt(magnetic permeability*electric permitivity)

In the Velcro universe, magnetic permeability is a measure of availability of photons and electric permitivity is a measure of in-availability of neutrinos. The relationship between the speed of light and these two measures are therefore no mystery at all.
