Gravimotion's elegant alternative to physics' concept of inertia

WELCOME to this Website Page part of the Gravimotion websites family.
Gravimotion is a logical (not philosophical) alternative to theoretical physics.
Gravimotion's main feature is to make sense!

Please forgive, when awkward, the English of this page. English is not the author's native language.

In Gravimotion, inertia is live, intricately involved in the phenomenon of motion!

  • Because its is represented graphically rather than mathematically, the gravimotion mechanism can be understood by all.
  • In that interpretation of reality, inertia that maintains uniform motion is graphically integrated into motion.
Here is how it works:
  • To start with a so called basic motion is represented graphically with a motion-volume.
  • A motion-volume is made of motion-quanta, and motion-quanta cannot be divided.
    A motion-quantum coincides to physics' concept of speed of light that is pure motion with a direction but without mass.
    Gravimotion's motion-quantum is the fastest motion that occurs in reality (outside our thinking process).
    Motion-quanta can combine to form motion-volumes.
  • The more complex a motion-volume the slower the motion represented.
    In other words whenever a motion-volume is combined to another motion-volume the combination is a slower motion volume.
    On the other hand whenever a motion-volume is relieved of part of its components it becomes closer to the motion-quantum (goes faster).
    The combination of motion-volumes is called "activity" in gravimotion.
  • Space and time are unified and occur under motion-quanta animated in a chaotic way.
    In the end space and time are disregarded in gravimotion, are replaced by this chaotic motion, which is given the name "pure activity".
  • Light waves ride this chaotic motion, just as sound waves ride the air molecules (that surrounds us) chaotic motion.
  • Gravitation is represented with motion volumes directed toward the center of the material body it surrounds.
    Being radial and surrounding the material body from all directions, the motion-volumes making gravitation cancel each other motion, and the body of matter at the center remains at rest, provided that body be isolated in space (far away from any other gravitation field).
    In gravimotion, physics gravitation field ends up being made of motion, and is called "radial activity".
  • When 2 distinct radial activities (gravitational fields) overlap they interact.
    They lose their respective equilibrium (symmetry or rest) in that process and turn into gravimotion, which is the very motion of the 2 bodies.
  • The spin of an object is represented starting from the "radial activity", in which all of the motion volumes are re-oriented slightly, as not to point to the center any more.
In short:
  • The gravimotion mechanism offers a personalized graphical configuration for each case of uniform-motion speed/mass combination.
    By contrast in physics merely the word inertia (with no mathematical explanations) fits all speeds and all masses no matter the object in uniform motion!
  • Similarly the gravimotion mechanism offers a graphical interpretation of a constantly spinning motion, which can be personalized as to fit any rotational speed and mass.
    By contrast physics' single expression rotational inertia (with no mathematical proof whatsoever) takes care of all constant spinning's, no matter the rotational speeds and masses!
  • Because it rests on a single phenomenon that of motion, gravimotion is from start a unified interpretation of Nature.
    By contrast physics is based on space, time, mass and 4 forces, let alone inertia, entropy and a bunch of "principles".
  • The gravimotion mechanism is simple, it is coherent, and it makes sense!
The fact of the matter (so to speak!) is that inertia and motion, rather than inertia and mass, are tightly tangled...
And gravimotion's geometrical illustration of inertia is much more sophisticated than physics non mathematical concept of it.
In physics there is no equation justifying uniform motion or resistance to acceleration. Both phenomenon are simply taken for granted!
By contrast gravimotion provides a graphical mechanism for each configuration of uniform and constant rotational motions.
