PHYSICAL FORCE AS AN ADMISSIBILITY CONDITION IN PHYSICS

This paper isolates physical force as a candidate admissibility condition for physical reality and tests it under a strict elimination-by-necessity framework. Force is examined solely as a physically enforcing mechanism acting in spacetime, independent of mathematical formalisms, descriptions, or interpretations. By removing non-enforcing attributions and retaining all physically enforcing interactions, the paper determines whether force is necessary and whether it is sufficient for physical reality. The analysis shows that force enforces physical change but cannot operate independently of energy and momentum exchange, establishing force as necessary but not sufficient within a closed, mechanism-only logical loop.
