If a mass is moving it has a wavelength - my question is, is the gravitational field of the mass then modulated accordingly ?
If a mass is made to move backwards and forwards then it emits gravitational waves, yes.synch said:If a mass is moving it has a wavelength - my question is, is the gravitational field of the mass then modulated accordingly ?
And if the mass has been and will be moving uniformly for infinite time then the wavelength will be infinite and the frequency content of the wave will be zero. It's the same as for the EM wave when DC passes through a coil.synch said:If a mass is moving it has a wavelength - my question is, is the gravitational field of the mass then modulated accordingly ?
A gravitational field is a region of space where a massive object, such as a planet or star, exerts a force on other objects. This force is known as gravity and it is what keeps planets in orbit around the sun.
A moving mass can change the strength and direction of the gravitational field in its vicinity. This is because the mass creates its own gravitational field, which interacts with the existing field in the area.
Gravitational field modulation is the process of altering the strength or direction of a gravitational field. This can be achieved by changing the mass distribution or velocity of objects within the field.
A moving mass can be modulated in a gravitational field by changing its velocity or direction of motion. This can be done using external forces, such as propulsion systems or gravitational assists from other objects.
Gravitational field modulation has potential applications in space travel and exploration. By modulating the gravitational field around a spacecraft, it could potentially reduce the amount of fuel needed for propulsion and enable faster and more efficient travel through the solar system.
