Forces arise from particle exchanges from "summary" of The Quantum Universe by Brian Cox,Jeff Forshaw

The concept that forces arise from particle exchanges lies at the heart of the quantum description of nature. When we look at the world around us, we see objects interacting with each other through forces such as gravity, electromagnetism, and the nuclear forces. These forces are transmitted between objects by the exchange of particles. For example, the electromagnetic force between two charged particles is mediated by the exchange of photons. When one charged particle emits a photon, it is absorbed by the other charged particle, leading to an attractive or repulsive force between them. This exchange of photons is what we perceive as the electromagnetic force. Similarly, the strong nuclear force,...
