I was thinking about this the other day and wondering about magnetic flux and gravity-- I know that they are not related, but was wondering about the similarities. Does magnetic flux travel at the speed of light? What is magnetic flux? By that I mean how is it transmitted? Light is photons, and possibly gravity transmitted by gravitons--so what is magnetic flux made out of? I was wondering if gravity could be described in a similar fashion--as a field but without the flux lines--sort of a gravity flux sphere I guess. I know that we don't really understand how gravity really works yet, whether it is particle or field or both or something else entirely that we haven't thought of yet, was just wondering if someone could clear up the magnetic flux thing.
On a side note, are the strong and weak forces similar? Are they fields too? Thanks!
