James Clerk Maxwell is a liar?

Are you telling me that this is not true?

∆ • B = 0

EDIT: See? Right there on the tin.

EDIT2: The meaning of this statement is that the sum of magnetic lines of force entering a frame is equal to those exiting; there are no magnetic monopoles.

Why tho?

chasilOP2y ago

There are four fundamental forces that are observed: the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, the electromagnetic force, and the gravitational force.

Why these forces exist, we cannot know.

How these forces act is a question of physics and mathematics.

Physics and math are things people invented to build models of what we see. They don't govern reality.
