Does Relativity Impact Gravity's Influence on Fast-Moving Objects?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between relativity and gravity's influence on fast-moving objects, specifically questioning whether time dilation affects gravitational acceleration. The original poster speculates that an object oscillating at high speeds may experience gravity differently, potentially appearing "gravity neutral." However, a respondent clarifies that Einstein's general relativity (GR) provides a comprehensive framework for understanding gravity, emphasizing that the original poster's ideas lack grounding in established physics. The conversation concludes with a recommendation to study basic physics concepts to avoid speculation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Einstein's General Relativity (GR)
  • Familiarity with Special Relativity (SR)
  • Basic knowledge of time dilation and its effects
  • Concepts of gravitational acceleration and its measurement
NEXT STEPS

TL;DR
Could relativity be giving mass density value.
Hello,

I was thinking 🤔, Einstein's brilliant theory of relativity is an observation of time/space and how it alters with speed.

If for example an object were to oscillate at such a speed to produce a very noticeable difference to its progression in time to its surroundings environment, say for example time were to be near ten times slower than its surrounding environment. Does this also mean that the way gravity effects that object would according to its surrounding environment be near ten times slower ? Therefore gravity for the object would be for example 0.01m/s2 therefore would it appear to its surrounding environment to be near gravity neutral ?

Going on... it is well known all atoms produce a natural frequency. Could it be the different frequencies are actually causing the difference in specific gravity for that mass rather than different masses having more or less specific sub atomic particles that some how have more attraction to gravity. This would mean what produces gravity is not the same as what is attracted by it.

Just some random thoughts, I wondered if anyone had an opinion .

Yes, it seems that you are not aware that a complete relativistic theory of gravity was developed more than a hundred years ago by Einstein. It's the theory of general relativity (GR), so named because it applies to the general case in which gravity may or may not be present; the earlier and simpler version of relativity applies only in the special case of negligible gravitational effect so is called special relativity (SR).

Expressing "random thoughts" that don't consider stuff that has been well-known for generations is a complete waste of your time and the time of the people that you are asking to listen to you. This has been a recurrent pattern in all of your threads here.

We applaud your enthusiasm and understand your fascination with physics - everyone here is an unpaid volunteer who wouldn't be here otherwise - but what you are doing is just plain ineffective. The best advice we can give you is to learn some more basic physics (the Khan Academy or appropriate textbooks, perhaps) to give yourself a solid base on which to build your ideas. If you don't, at some point you will likely be banned for repeated violations of the rules against personal speculation and low-quality posts.
