    Einstein's:Mass increase resulting from Acceleration increase

    I am looking for the ultimate reference to the notion by Einstein, that increase in Acceleration will result in increase in Mass? Any links or handwaving would be much appreiciated, as I intend to place a fundamental number of questions, in order to expand my knowledge on LQG, thanks.

    Help Needed: Calculating Geometric Mean Increase from 1998-2001

    I don't know why I can't figure this one out tonight. I just can't think straight and I am hoping someone can help ASAP. Here is the question: In 1998 revenue from gambling was $651 million. In 2001 the revenue increased to $2.4 billion. What is the geometric mean annual increase for the period?

    Does increased velocity increase gravity?

    I know it increases mass, since KE = 1/2 mv^2 and as you approach the speed of light KE keeps going up meaning mass must go up. I've been told that this is simply an increase in relativistic mass (the e=mc^2 type) and gravity is based on rest mass. But isn't it kind of weird for everything...

    Would adding more Gear in a series increase TORQUE?

    Hi, Would more Gearings aligned in a series on a rack mean more Torque? And also,... what gearing should I use on motor: ones that is a lot bigger than the ones on the series, or ones that are a lot smaller? which ones would generate more torque(power) rather than speed? Would the rack's...

    Why do citric acids increase your bodys alkalinity?

    I was reading through a physiology book and it stated that oranges and other citric fruits actually increase the alkalinity of your body, even though they're acidic themselves. Does anyone have an explanation for this? Thanks, Jacob

    In an electrodynamic system, does the entropy of the field increase?

    Consider an electric field throughout the region of an electrodynamic system: E [x,y,z,t] The function, E [x,y,z,t], is a macrostate. Corrresponding to it are all the ways the charge in the system could be arranged ( p [x,y,z,t])so as to produce this macrostate. The set of p [x,y,z,t]s...

    Does mass increase in SR mean higher gravity in GR?

    It has been years since I have thought of relativity, but I came across a book by Jerome Drexler in which he attempts to support his view that ultra high energy protons (cosmic rays) are what dark matter is all about in the galactic halos. In spite of the fact that it seems to me these protons...

    Can Black Holes Increase Their Mass According to Remote Observers?

    A remote observer describes a black hole with Schwarzschild coordinates. These have a coordinate singularity at the horizon, which implies that the distante between any spacetime point and the horizon is infinite. My question is whether a remote observer is allowed to claim that a black hole may...
