Optical tweezers
Light has momentum
If propagation of light changes direction
then the momentum changed
If the momentum of light changed then a
net force is exerted on the light by the
particle
Light also exerts a force on the particle

Objects continously move because they
have energy
Energy comes in many forms
Energy can never be created nor destroyed
Energy can only be transformed
