Thank you for your good answer. I have been reading some more on this stuff, and from what I can understand, electromagnetic field has an impulse, as well as inertia. The formula for impulse is derived from 3 equations: F=ma, p=mv, and F= uS. The last one doesn't look as familiar, but apparently...

My school most definitely doesn't support sources like wikipedia. I was just trying to make sense out of this "unfamiliar terminology" through any means possibly for my personal understanding. After further research, I found more on electromagnetic mass, this time through a trusted source...

Well according to wikipedia, electromagnetic mass is a concept of mechanics, denoting as to how much electromagnetic energy is contributing to the mass of charged particles... So I think its safe to assume that electromagnetic mass is a mass of charged particles? The question here is as...

Alright I got a few things down. So there is a relativistic mass (mass in motion) and rest mass. What exactly is electromagnetic mass?

Dear friends, I have a 5 minute presentation to give on the dependence of electromagnetic mass on its velocity for my physics class. This could be a very broad question to answer, but all I ask is to direct me to some useful links. I have troubles with that because I keep finding regular...
