🌟 Light as an Electromagnetic Wave vs. Curvature Wave (PPC View)

🌟 Light as an Electromagnetic Wave vs. Curvature Wave (PPC View)

Light has fascinated scientists for centuries. Modern physics describes light in two powerful ways: as an electromagnetic wave and, in the PPC (Pawan Upadhyay's Pressure–Curvature) Law of Gravity, as a phenomenon whose motion is governed by pressure-generated spacetime curvature.
These two views are not contradictory—they describe different aspects of the same reality.


🔌 1. Light as an Electromagnetic (EM) Wave

The electromagnetic nature of light was discovered by James Clerk Maxwell.

Key ideas:

Light consists of oscillating electric (E) and magnetic (B) fields

The fields are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of motion

Light does not require a medium

It travels through vacuum at a constant speed:


c = 299,792,458 m/s

What this explains:

Reflection, refraction, interference

Polarization

Radio waves, microwaves, visible light, X-rays, gamma rays

Communication technologies (radio, Wi-Fi, satellites)

👉 Conclusion:
Light is an electromagnetic wave in its internal structure and propagation.

🌌 2. Light as a Curvature-Guided Wave (PPC View)

The PPC Law of Gravity adds a gravitational interpretation.

In PPC:

Mass–energy creates gravitational pressure

Pressure creates spacetime curvature

Curvature determines the paths (geodesics) of matter and light


PPC insight:

 Light is not gravity itself, but its motion is guided by curvature produced by gravitational pressure.

Thus, light behaves like a curvature-guided wave in gravitational fields.

🧠 Important Clarification (Very Important)

🔹 Light itself is NOT a curvature wave
🔹 Light does NOT create curvature in the PPC sense
🔹 Light remains an electromagnetic wave

Instead:

Curvature acts on light, not the other way around.

So in PPC:

EM theory explains what light is

PPC gravity explains how gravity affects light


🔄 3. How the Two Views Work Together

EM View:

Describes the nature of light

Explains how light propagates

Governed by Maxwell’s equations


PPC Curvature View:

Describes the environment light travels through

Explains bending, delay, redshift

Governed by pressure-generated curvature


🌠 4. Light Bending: The Perfect Example

EM theory alone:
Cannot explain why light bends near massive objects.

GR:
Says spacetime is curved.

PPC:
Explains why spacetime is curved:

Gravitational pressure bends spacetime, and light follows that curvature.

Thus, light appears to bend—not because it slows down locally—but because the geometry shaped by pressure changes its path.

⏱️ 5. Speed of Light in Both Views

Locally, the speed of light is always c

Gravity does not slow light directly

Apparent slowing is due to:

Time dilation

Curvature of spacetime

Pressure gradients (PPC interpretation)

Both EM theory and PPC fully respect this principle.


✨ Final Understanding

Light is an electromagnetic wave by nature

Light behaves like a curvature-guided wave in gravity

PPC gravity does not replace electromagnetism

PPC explains the gravitational environment in which EM waves travel


Final statement:

Light is electromagnetic in essence, and curvature-guided in motion.
PPC gravity explains the curvature; Maxwell explains the wave.
