I wonder how do you distinguish the fundamental forces?
After all, they are each only a bunch of Newtons.

To distinguish these would be only separating them by strength. Otherwise, forces are all a branch of the same effect.
This is a very Newtonian way of looking at the fundamental forces, and has to be replaced by quantum field theory A much better term for them is the fundamental interactions , for reasons I will explain in a moment.sexwish said:I wonder how do you distinguish the fundamental forces?

The four fundamental forces of nature are gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force. These forces govern the interactions between particles and objects in the universe.
The fundamental forces differ in terms of their strength, range, and the types of particles they act on. For example, gravity is the weakest force but has an infinite range, while the strong nuclear force is the strongest but only acts on particles within the nucleus of an atom.
The fundamental forces are related through the concept of unification, which suggests that at extremely high energies, all the forces could potentially merge into a single force. This is still a topic of ongoing research in the field of physics.
The fundamental forces cannot be broken or changed, as they are inherent properties of the universe. However, their strengths can vary depending on the environment and conditions. For example, the strong nuclear force becomes weaker at higher energies.
Scientists study and understand the fundamental forces through a combination of theoretical models and experimental observations. These forces are described by mathematical equations and are tested through experiments using advanced technologies such as particle accelerators.
