It is understood that light travel is a wave motion. I propose that this is only partially correct. One of the problems with the wave model is the keyhole effect. Light waves can pass a keyhole unobstructed. Light waves of different lengths should collide when trying to pass a keyhole and diffuse. Such as when light passed a prism. The differences in valleys and troughs would cause diffusion to occur. However light doesn't behave that way. It passes through unimpeded. I think light travels in a spiral not a wave. Much like a steel spring is a spiral. If viewed from only 2 dimensions it would appear as a wave. We view it in 3 dimensions so we see it as the spiral. What if light was indeed a spiral. It would pass the keyhole unobstructed as spirals can occupy the same space and time. See my point.
How could you say it spirals.What are you seeing. Intresting view. I would say light much like a wave in water. water molicules bump up and down , up, off the the solid bottom and down from gravity pushing water molicules back down , Light on the other hand bumping off our time and space and another demention..
I am proposing the possiblilty that it does. If you take a simple steel spring and look at it from the side,(2 dimension view) it would appear as a wave. However we see the spring in 3 dimensions and thus we see it as the spiral it is. What if light was actually moving through space in a spiral too. This would explain the keyhole problem with light.I don't know how the physics would explain that motion. I dont have the education in physics and calculus to test the idea.
in 3rd dimension point of view light traveling in a spiral is a very good idea, but didnt we already prove that light moved in waves through time and space and not in a spiral?
I would think that any experiment to prove wave motion, would not disprove a spiral motion. A spiral is a wave pattern in 2 planes of observation. Thus the proof would be positive for both wave and spiral. I don't think anyone has tested a theory that would draw a conclusion about the spiral motion. As I indicated earlier, I lack the educational background to test this myself. I guess I should have stayed in school.
Light passes through spacetime. It gets affected by the warping of massive objects. Light does not travel in spirals. Einsteins theory on photoelectric effect states photons travel in which the state of matter allows them to. There is now spiral. Just a diversion. Unless it is a black hole.
could it be possible that a light beam only exists in one dimension and that is why it is so fast? to me it seems like the light beam is like the line segment, only existing in one dimension. it can't be observed from a third point in space. sound waves travel through out matter in all three dimensions, and maybe that is why they are so much slower.
