Relativistic Gravitational Potential Energy And General Free Fall: A Fundamental Topic In Physics, Jorge A. Franco
Relativistic Gravitational Potential Energy And General Free Fall: A Fundamental Topic In Physics, Jorge A. Franco
Jorge A Franco
In this paper, we derived expressions of the relativistic potential energy for radial, circular and general curvilinear motion of a mass under the influence of a gravitational field, and the equivalence relationship between velocity and radius in each case. Also it was obtained the influence of altitude on time, mass, length and other physical magnitudes for circular and general curvilinear motion, and for the static case or radial.
