Is this a difficult question? I thought it would be like the corrections for time and mass.

If you have an object traveling at a velocity v at a point where, if the object had zero velocity, its gravitational acceleration would be a, what is the formula for calculating the relativistic correction for its acceleration at this point? Does it depend on the angle between the velocity...

If you have an object (e.g. an alpha particle) traveling at nearly the speed of light towards another massive object (e.g. a black hole) from a large distance, how would you calculate the gravitational acceleration on that object from the viewpoint of an external observer? Obviously, the...
