is it an as you like it program ???!!
or is it physics ??

you ay
it is relativistic mass if you divide it by c



were do you see it*** from that formula ***!!components ----
-----any relativistic component
in order to be relativistic it must have a numeric or formula
definition of relativistic:
like the Gamma factor
or else it is hand waving not physics

I SAY IT IS **ASTRONAUTIC MASS!**
or!!
**WITCHES ON BROOM MASS **

in what is your definition better than my new above
definitions ???!!

No, Pretty much anything where speeds are not << c are relativistic.

You are being quite civilised and rational in your discussion. I
congratulate you. Lets hope you can keep it up.

Physics .. I'm always discussing physics and presenting valid physics
arguments.

> you ay
> it is relativistic mass if you divide it by c

It is all relativistic (ie what SR predicts) already. But yes .. if you
take the energy of the photon and divide by c you get its momentum. If you
divide that by c you get its relativistic or apparent or inertial mass.

The concept is that in the Newtonian world (approximated when v <<c) we have
p = mv .. so if you know p and v, you can calculate m = p/v.. When v for an
object gets closer to c, one notices that the mass that is apparent when we
calculate it that way increases above the rest mass. This is the
relativistic or inertial or apparent mass.

BTW: note that even in Newtonian phsyics, m =p/v is indeterminate when v=0
... but p = mv still applies.

See what ??

In P = Mc

> in order to be relativistic it must have a numeric or formula
> definition of relativistic:
> like the Gamma factor

NO .. that is TOTALLY WRONG. It does NOT need a gamma factor to be
relativistic.

eg .
The relativistic formula for total energy is E^2 = (mc^2)^2 + (pc)*2 .. but
there is no gamma there.
The relativistic formula for velocity 'addition' is v (+) w = (v + w) / ( 1
+ vw/c^2) .. but there is no gamma there
The relativistic formula for doppler shift of light is f_s/f_o = sqrt (
(1+v/c)/(1-v/c)) .. but there is no gamma there

'relativistic ' does NOT mean 'has a gamma factor in it'

see http://www.thefreedictionary.com/relativistic

relativistic (adj)
2. Physics
a. Of, relating to, or resulting from speeds approaching the speed of light:
eg relativistic increase in mass.
b. Having to do with or based on the theory of relativity: eg relativistic
mechanics.

You cannot make up your own terminology and expect others to accept it ..
especially when there is already well defined terminology. Even worse, you
use existing terminology incorrectly, for the wrong things. That is just
plain stupid, for someone posting in a physics newsgroup.

> in what is your definition better than my new above
> definitions ???!!

Because mine is accepted physics terminology. You should LEARN physics so
you KNOW what people (like me) who speak in accepted physics terminologym
are actually saying. Then you might have some chance of a fruitful
discussion

TELL US WHAT IS THE **QUANTITATIVE DIFFERENCE** BETWEEN
JUST MASS
AND RELATIVISTIC MASS ---
and how do you calculate it ?? (THAT DIFFERENCE !)
IN hf/c ???
2
you divided momentum by c!!
you didnt divide ENERGY BY C!!
energy divided by c^2 is mass
what is
momentum divided by c ??
what has dividing mometum
divided by c got to do with mass or relativistic mass?
is it p/c = m ??
if so
P= m c ??
(with no dimensionless figures) ??
ie
all momentum, in our universe has the same
quantity ??
and there is no p1 p2 etc ??!!


2
you say that mass in relativity
'is always relativistic '
even if there is no gamma !!
so lets take the example of

F = gamma m a
is ther a gamma factor here ??!!
if it is not needed why do you write
F=gamma m a
and not just
F=m a !! ??
3
if you divide ML/T by c
whY do you get only
relativistic mass
why not relativistic L (length??

why not relativistic T (time ?/))

and if we get
relativistic L
and T
HOW CAN THE VELOCITY OF PHOTON BE CONSTANT ??

I'm glad you have. Perhaps that means you are willing now to discuss
physics .. and maybe even learn a little, as there are glaring gaps in your
basic physics understanding.

Hopefully its because you realize that attacking,. insulting, and lying
about the people who are kinf enough to discuss your post with you is not
productive. You're just lucky that there are a couple of people that give
you the time of day.

I have explained .. "relativistic: does not mean "has a gamma factor" or
"includes more than one velocity to be relative to". It means that it is a
formula or concept that is related to relativity, or is dealing with speeds
approaching c.. usually you use the term "relativistic" when the formula or
concept is somewhat different in relativity than in classical physics (at
higher speeds).

eg there is the classical formula for velocity composition, and the
relativistic formula for velocity composition. At lover speeds, they give
close to identical results (too close to measure).

> ie
> DIFFERENT FROM JUST MASS ??!!

It IS a mass. It is a different mass calculation. A bit like an object can
have a length and a width and an area .. several different measurements that
are all lengths.

To further extend that analogy ... an object can have a proper (or rest or
invariant) length and a different measured length (it is really a
relativistic length, but by convention we just call it length). Its the
same notion with mass .. an object can have a proper (or rest or invariant)
mass, and a different relativistic (or apparent or inertial) mass.

> TELL US WHAT IS THE **QUANTITATIVE DIFFERENCE** BETWEEN
> JUST MASS
> AND RELATIVISTIC MASS ---

For a photon, the (rest) mass is zero (and has been measured to be zero to a
very high precision). the relativistic mass of a photon ( P/c or E/c^2 ) is
non-zero .. and MUCH MUCH greater than the precision at which rest mass has
been measured. If you want you can pick a particular frequency photon, and
work out what hf/c^2 is, and that is the relativistic (or apparent or
inertial) mass.

We know from experiment that they are most definitely different values ..
and as predicts by relativity

> and how do you calculate it ?? (THAT DIFFERENCE !)
> IN hf/c ???

You don't calculate it in that .. because relativistic mass isn't directly
in that formula. But we also have P = Mc.. So Mc = hf/c, so M = hf/c^2 =
E/c^2

This is very basic work with formulas.

> 2
> you divided momentum by c!!

Yes. Because P = Mc for a photon. In general P = Mv, but for a photon v=c

> you didnt divide ENERGY BY C!!

No .. you divide it by c^2. E = Mc^2

> energy divided by c^2 is mass

Yes it is .. relativistic mass. That is how relativistic mass is defined

> what is

Yes it is .. relativistic mass. That is how relativistic mass is defined

P = Mc

> is it p/c = m ??

Yes .. where the m there is relativistic mass.

> if so

Yes .. it is.

> (with no dimensionless figures) ??

Of course there are dimensionless figures in the values for m and c and P ..
but there are no other dimensionless numeric constant.s there ... why should
there be

You are confusing P = Mc formula with the dimensions of momentum which are
ML/T.

P = Mv is the formula for momentum given relativistic mass for all objects.

What the hell are you on abount .. that would only be the case if everything
have the same relativistic mass

No .. you are talking nonsense .. where DO you come up with this gibberish?

> 2
> you say that mass in relativity
> 'is always relativistic '

relativistic mass is. rest mass is rest mass. They are two different
measurements with two difference values UNLESS the object is at rest.

> even if there is no gamma !!

of course .. you do not NEED to have a gamma in a formula for it to be
relativistic. I gave you some examples

> so lets take the example of

That is not the correct formula for force in relativity. I have told you
that several times before over the months/years. Please see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_relativity#Force

for force in the same direction as motion it is

F = gamma ^ 3 m a

> is ther a gamma factor here ??!!

Yes there is .. and that formula uses rest mass, not relativistic mass


> if it is not needed why do you write
> F=gamma m a

You mean F = gamma ^ 3 m a .... Well .. because that is what the formula
relating rest mass and force is

> and not just
> F=m a !! ??

F = gamma ^ 2 M a ... Well .. because that is what the formula relating
relativistic mass and force is.

> 3
> if you divide ML/T by c

That is nonsense. ML/T is dimensions. You can't multiply or divide them
by anything, other than other dimensions.

NOTE: I have been using M for relativistic mass and 'm' for rest mass. But
we also use the letter 'M' as a dimension. Do not confuse these two values
that happen to share the same letter in my posts. I just find 'M' and 'm'
for masses easier than something like 'm_rel' and 'm_0'.

> whY do you get only
> relativistic mass

If you divide an ML/T-dimensioned value (momentum P) by an M/L-dimensioned
value (speed c), you get an M-dimensioned value., ie a mass value .. and it
is the relativistic (or apparent or inertial) mass

> why not relativistic L (length??

Because that would be nonsense .. you cannot divide a momentum by a speed to
get a length .. the dimensions are wrong

> why not relativistic T (time ?/))

Because that would be nonsense .. you cannot divide a momentum by a speed to
get a time .. the dimensions are wrong

We don't

do you say that

----------------
SO WHILE YOU TALK ABOUT V/C
YOU ARE ACTUALLY **USE*
THE GAMMA FACTOR !!
AND ACTUALLY YOU CANT HAVE THE DIFFERENCE UNLESS BETWEEN REST MAS
AND RELATIVISTIC MASS
**UNLESS ***
YOU USE THE GAMMA FACTOR
RIGHT ??

---------------------------------------
 This is the

SO ??

IT MEANS THAT ANY PHYSICS FORMULA HAS ITS
LIMITS OF VALIDATION THAT YOU CANT
EXTRAPOLATE !!
RIGHT ??

so
while v=c
it is a limit case in which there is no gamma
BECAUSE YOU CANT USE IT ANY MORE !!
SO
HOW DO YOU PROVE THAT
NO REST MASS CAN REACH c !!!WHILE YOU HAVE NO
MATHEMATICAL TOOL
TO PROVE IT ??!!
(iow
you cant use it by the gamma factor
that by definition does not work at that point
