Pole Definitions |

Table #4 |

Continuing our "language of physics" analogy, let's focus on some of the basic "words" we can create with our 4 letter alphabet. These words will define some basic elements in physics. The concept of "pole" is a simple one that deals with the nature of matter. For gravity it is mass and for electricity it is charge. Magnetism is defined as electricity in motion so the definition of magnetic pole includes a velocity. The terms in the white spaces below represent the difference between one term and another. |

Notice the "GravitoMagnetic Pole" at the bottom right corner of table #4. We normally refer to this as "momentum". I'm using new terminology to emphasize that it fits into a predictable spot in the pole matrix that defines the concept of a mass in motion. A GravitoMagnetic field, according to the theory of general relativity, arises from moving matter (matter currents) just as an ordinary magnetic field arises from moving charges (electrical currents). |
