physical universe are produced by these two primordial forces While the gravitational forces dominate such phenomena of macrocosm as the motion of planets and stars, the electromagnetic forces are predominant in the microcosm of the heart of atoms
Today Einstein's Unified Field Theory has unified the physical laws governing the two primordial forces The famous equation E=me has shown that matter and energy are mutually transformable, the distinction being simply one of temporary state The paradox presented by the waves of atoms and particles of light has been resolved by a new mathematical apparatus that permitted accurate description of quantum phenomena either in terms of waves or in terms of particles as one wished Today the whole complex of the physical universe is almost resolved into homogenous fabric in which matter and energy are indistinguishable, the abyss between macrocosm and microcosmos is almost bridged, and all forms of motions tend to become simply changes in the structure and concentration of the single primordial field
