Is magnetism analogous to gravity?
1. Not having studied it much, I dont have any similar out of the box ideas on this subject, but I also dont see why magnetism wouldnt be somewhat analogous to gravitation. Also, I cant imagine it involving an immaterial field, which makes no sense to me but often is mentioned in some accounts. Actually, all moving charges generate magnetic forces, which are about a billion billion (i.e., 1018) times greater than gravitation. Because Newtons First Law of Motion (the law of the universe, if there ever was one) describes only a push. Any apparent pull actually must be a push, as in a vacuum cleaner.
