Isn't it possible to use the model of curved space, so effective in explaining gravity, to explain other forces, like the magnetic force? What are the biggest challenges with this approach?
Thanks for your time.

The Curved Space Model is a scientific theory that explains gravity and magnetic force by proposing that space itself is curved and objects with mass cause this curvature.
The Curved Space Model suggests that objects with mass cause a curvature in the fabric of space, similar to how a heavy object placed on a trampoline will cause a depression in the surface. This curvature then causes objects to move towards each other, creating the force of gravity.
There is significant evidence supporting the Curved Space Model, including observations of gravitational lensing, the bending of light by massive objects, and the precise predictions of planetary orbits made by the theory of general relativity, which is built upon the concept of curved space.
The Curved Space Model proposes that the force of magnetism is also caused by the curvature of space. According to this theory, moving electric charges create a magnetic field, and the interaction between magnetic fields and charged particles is what we observe as magnetic force.
The Curved Space Model has gained significant acceptance in the scientific community, particularly with the success of general relativity in explaining many observed phenomena. However, there are still ongoing debates and research regarding the exact mechanisms of gravity and magnetic force, and some alternative theories exist.
