"Think of dark energy as the "evil counterpart" to
gravity–an "anti-gravity" force providing a negative pressure that fills
the universe and stretches the very fabric of spacetime. As it does so dark energy drives cosmic objects apart at an increasingly rapid rate rather than drawing them together as gravity does.
Right now, dark energy is just the name that astronomers gave to the mysterious "something" that is causing the universe to expand at an accelerated rate.
Dark energy has been described by some as having the effect of a negative pressure that is pushing space outward.
the electromagnetic force is the fundamental building block for the spring force, but the spring force itself is a macroscopic manifestation of the interactions between atoms and molecules, governed by Hooke's Law.
When a metal spring is stretched or compressed, it is displaced from its equilibrium position. As a result, it experiences a restoring force that tends to retract the spring back to its original position. This force is called the spring force. It is a contact force that can be found in elastic materials."
spring force is dark energy, spring force is negative pressure that is pushing space outward. When metal spring is compressed, it experiences spring force that tends to retract the spring back to its original position. The spring force in compression is like negative pressure that is pushing space outward.
If electromagnetic force is the fundamental building block for the spring force, electromagnetic force is fundamental building block for dark energy. Dark energy can be made from electromagnetic force.
