Do two relativistic electrons form a non relativistic 100 MeV muon? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muon If two relativistic electrons form a relativistic muon then a mass spectrometer will behave as if the electrons and muon have large energies when in reality maybe just the Lorentz force is...

Try to elaborate a theory that instead of using Relativistic Newton's Second Law of Motion (1) and Lorentz force (2) uses Classical Newton's Second Law of Motion and that modified weak Lorentz force that you suspect might act on fast moving particles. (1)...

Cavendish's equipment was remarkably sensitive for its time. The force involved in twisting the torsion balance was very small, 1.74 x 10^–7 N, about 1/50,000,000 of the weight of the small balls or roughly the weight of a large grain of sand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment...

Increase in weight if an object is illuminated Are there experiments which show that the weight of a body, with initial mass between 1 g and 1 kg, really increases if illuminated for a certain time? Photons have energy E = hf but no mass. If the weight of a body gets bigger after being...

Your question reduces to: "I receive four visible spectral lines slightly shifted from the lines emitted by burning hydrogen. How do I know I have received spectral lines from a moving source of burning hydrogen and not four lines from a stationary source of something else?" The answer is...

Gravitational waves are generated when the mass quadrupole moment changes in time. We also know motion of mass contributes to its gravitation. Does the producing process of gravitational waves, which involves mass in accelerated motion, produce gravitation as well? If so, is it of less, equal...
