The Nowadays Science of Physics states that when an external Force is exerted on any Massive Body it causes an Acceleration of this Massive Body according to Newton's Second Law of Motion, F=ma.But, if that Massive Body Accelerates according to Newton's Second Law of Motion, F=ma, this also implies, as will be presented in this paper, that all the Work done by this external Force, which is also all the Energy exerted on this Massive Body, is already converted to the Kinetic Energy that that Massive Body acquires, or, in other words, is already manifested and embedded in the Kinetic Energy that that Massive Body acquires, because of the above-mentioned external Force which was exerted on it.However, if an external Force is exerted on an Electrically Charged Massive Body, what was presented above might need modifications.Because, if an Electrically Charged Massive Body does indeed Accelerates also according to Newton's Second Law of Motion, F=ma, and all the Work done by the external Force exerted on it, is already manifested and embedded in the Kinetic Energy embedded in this Electrically Charged Massive Body, then this cannot explain the origin of the Extra Energy that an Electrically Charged Massive Body acquires, which is manifested in the Electromagnetic Waves that it emits when it Accelerates, and the Magnetic Field that surrounds it when it moves.If the above presented dilemma is further substantiated, then, the resolution to this dilemma should be only one of two possibilities: either the Extra Energy mentioned-above, is generated from nothing, which clearly violates the Energy Conservation Principle, or, as this paper predicts, that Newton's Second Law of Motion, F=ma might not be the proper equation which should be used to calculate the Acceleration that an Electrically Charged Body acquires, when an external Force is exerted on it.Despite the fact that the proof provided to the prediction that F=ma might not be correct for Electrically Charged Bodies, is based on very simple but significant arguments, as can be also concluded from what was already presented above, since that prediction does challenge a significant element of the nowadays Science of Physics (F=ma), which is accepted as a definitely correct element, then, an additional support for that prediction might be required, to further substantiate that prediction.But because, the proof provided to that dilemma is based on very simple arguments, that additional support should not be provided from additional theoretical arguments, but rather, it should be provided by a proposal for a physical experiment, which if implemented, might provide validity to that prediction.Thus, this paper does also propose such an experiment, which is based on measurements related to the Acceleration embedded in the Attraction between two Electrically Charged Bodies under Coulomb's Law Force, which is clearly a scenario of Forces exerted on Electrically Charged Bodies.Based on the Identical Structures of Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, F = G⋅(m1⋅m2)/ r^2, and Coulomb's Law, F = Ke⋅(q1⋅q2)/r^2, this paper predicts that the origin of the Acceleration embedded in the Attraction between two Electrically Charged Bodies under Coulomb's Law Force is the Electric Fields, which also implies, that the Electric Fields Strength are also forms of Acceleration, as the Gravitational Field Strength is already recognized as a form of Acceleration, which also implies, that the Acceleration embedded in the Attraction between two Electrically Charged Bodies under the Coulomb's Law Force cannot be calculated by the equation F=ma, as was also presented before above.Thus, a measurement of the Time to collision between two Electrically Charged Bodies, in a scenario of the Attraction between two Electrically Charged Bodies under the Coulomb's Law Force, is a good indication for concluding, if the Acceleration in that scenario does indeed complies, or does not comply with the equation F=ma.As already presented above, such an experiment is proposed, and described in this paper.If that experiment will be implemented, and its results will be successful, this will provide the required additional substantiation, to the prediction that F=ma might not be correct for Electrically Charged Bodies.However, the substantiation of the above-mentioned prediction, will have also additional significant implications.Because, if the above-mentioned prediction will be validated, and also the Electric Fields Strength will be recognized as a form of Acceleration, then, this will have significant implications also on how the entities of Space and Time should be perceived.The nowadays Science of Physics states, that there is only one, single, three-dimensional entity of Space, and just one, single, one-dimensional entity of Time, which together are Interweaved to form the real one, single, four-dimensional Interwoven Space/Time entity, presented in Einstein's General Relativity Theory.However, if the Electric Field Strength will be recognized as a form of Acceleration, this paper presents that this will also imply that there must be multiple, separate, Interwoven Space/Time entities, each attributed to a separate form of Energy, and not just one single, four-dimensional Interwoven Space/Time entity, presented in Einstein's General Relativity Theory.The analogy presented by Einstein's General Relativity of mass curving Space/Time works well for Gravity, where the curvature always leads to Attraction. However, it struggles to explain the bidirectional nature of Electromagnetic Forces (Attraction and repulsion). A simple "dent" in Space/Time cannot account for both pushing and pulling.Thus, as also presented in this paper, the prediction of multiple, separate, Interwoven Space/Time entities might be the lead to start a Unification between Gravity and Electromagnetism, a significantly unresolved issue today, and explain the origin of the Attraction or the Repulsion between Electric Charges, an issue which is still a mystery today. Thus, from the above follows, that the prediction, presented in this paper, that F=ma might not be correct for Electrically Charged Bodies, which as presented above can be proved with very simple but significant arguments, might be only the first step, of more significant implications, and thus, an implementation of the above-mentioned proposed experiment, might be an important endeavor.
