This has turned into a game of "guess and check". Is this the right equation? What about this one? What about this one?

$$ v = c \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{\gamma^2}\left(1 - \frac{r_s}{r}\right)} $$

is it a good formula, in what differs from yours?
So have you managed to get around to looking through this thread for the definition of ##\gamma##, as I implied you should in #35? I strongly suspect the answer is no given your subsequent posts, this one in particular. If not, why not? If so, what have you done with it and where are you stuck?

We're not really interested in doing high-school level algebra for you, especially if you give us no evidence you've tried it yourself. That's basically why the responses are becoming less helpful.

More than "guess and check" it looks like a "cat and mouse" game, Vanadium

Peter Donis, you are a mentor, over 50 posts ago I simply asked for the relativistic formula for gravity, and did my honest whack,(#1)

Do you know the formula we must use to find the relativistic increase of velocity? from other calcs the velocity of F should be .9902 or so-
Thanks
I didn't ask anyone to hold my hand (#35) or do cheap algebra (#53) for me.
You are only patronizing me, as usual, do you think I'll get a formula sometime?, eventually?

You already have a formula. I gave it to you in #7. You used it to get a ratio of ##\gamma##s but seem incapable of getting to the velocity from there. Why? What have you tried? Apart from insisting (incorrectly) that the formula must be wrong?

As @Ibix has pointed out, you've already gotten what you asked for. Plus a lot more.

Thread closed.
