We cannot prove that electrons and neutrons exist in particle form inside the atom. We can prove that protons exist in particle form inside the universe. Or, is this a semantic argument, in which case, a better wording would be, "gravity produces a force on matter in proportion to its mass."? jr writes> A semantic argument? Do you mean that a logical progression of words is open to one's interpretation? If so, I agree. And I conclude that word definition must be precise in meaning. However, we move right along with inprecise definitions as a consequence of rigorous, least action consistent, mathematical convenience. Your better wording statement includes "gravity, force, matter and mass". My work, in part, seeks to define these nebulous often foggily exchanged, least action consistent words, precisely. Let's take weight and mass, the quantities of gravity and force. We use a balance scale to measure what we feel as weight [mg]. I must show that the balance scale itself does not measure weight. The balance scale, on balance, retains its balance at every location it can be used. What we feel however, weight [mg], changes depending on location. So the balance scale compares the resistive component mass [m] (the cumulative resistance of atoms) at any location. We feel its weight [mg] at any location. What we feel is measured as a direct consequence of [mg].. Mass is invariant. Where [mg] varies with location. So mass [m] is the conserved quantity on the balance scale. Where [mg] is what we feel at any location. What we feel is always equal and opposite to the resistance we encounter. Now [g] is a measure of acceleration that changes with location (and time). This accelerative component, suitably defined, is a vector component, that describes least action consistent motion. This component [g] is therefore applicable to the least action consistent stable system universe motion we observe. Since mass [m] is independent of the celestial least action consistent mathematics, [mg] is a function of where we can measure it. This makes the force we feel [mg] a mathematical consequence of the product of an independent invariant mass [m] and a least action consistent component [g]. Now, rather than to just assume that mass is conserved with respect to celestial object motion and can be proportionalized to that motion based on measured planet surface object mass magnitudes, we should first note that we can place any surface planet object in to any available orbit we choose where two objects with different mass can occupy the same orbit independent of mass. And then we must consider the third law. The equal and opposite law. We have learned that surface planet object mass is conserved say, during impact collisions. That is to say that in these experiments MA = ma, before and after collision so that, say, Ma = mA. Where we are inertial objects and that what we feel Ma or [mA] or [mg] will be equal to the resistance we encounter or which we act on. So the force we feel [mg], [Ma], or [mA] where we are planet surface inertial objects is equal and opposite to the resistance we encounter. Historically the quantity mass [m] has been derived from the quantity we feel [ma] or [mg]. Where mass [m] represents a resistance that is invariant and [g] is an accelerative component that is consistent with least action motion anywhere. Instead of continuing to define the invariant quantity mass as a consequence of the variant force we feel, it is necessary to investigate mass [m] more thoroughly. I have so much time allotted for answering physics questions these days. You should be able to utilize this post to come to further conclusions yourself or to challenge it which will provide me a direction. Thanks.
