I always do .. when physics is spoken to me .. as I did in the remainder of
my reply and in the remainder of this post. I was addressing YOUR
non-physics statements (which you dishonestly snipped above)

Oh .. are you taunting me.

Nope.

BAHAHA .. you have that backwards. Noone else bothers to respond to you for
any length of tiem. I'm just HOPING that you might learn. So far it
appears you have at least learnt to control your temper and your foul
language (for a while) .. so that's a start.

Nope .. physics. Maybe you can't tell the difference?

They are both mass measurements, but different values. I've answered you
already about that on a number of occasions.

Again you dishonestly removed my detailed answers to that along with
analogies from your reply. That's cheating, Porat.

Because they are different

No. There is no gamma factor in v/c

No. I just told you that in the post you are replying to that you
dishonestly snipped.

You can use M = P/v for calculating the relativistic mass for any object
(even a photon) .. no gamma factor involved. For speeds v < c, you can use
the formulas that DO have a gamma involved to get a finite results. At v =
c, the formulas that have a gamma in them result in indeterminate, infinite
or zero values. I've told you all of these many times before

The formulas are valid where they are valid. However YOU do not get to
choose where that is. The theory BEHIND the formulas determines that

> so

> it is a limit case in which there is no gamma

No .. there is gamma = 1/0 = infinity ... 1/gamma = 0 ... 0/gamma =
indeterminate

That is why we know that at v=c, an object with (rest) mass would have
infinite relativistic mass, and infinite energy, and infinite momentum. And
that it would take an infinite amount of energy to put an object with (rest)
mass at speed c. So THAT is why we know that no object with (rest) mass can
have speed v=c

The only things that can achieve a speed of c are ones with zero rest mass,
and the formulas of relativity tell us that an object with v =c must have a
(rest) mass m = 0.

> BECAUSE YOU CANT USE IT ANY MORE !!

It depends on the formula .. you may get a zero value or an infinite value
or an indeterminate value (ie the formula does not tell you anything).

Because if it did, the relativistic mass becomes infinite etc

But we do .. sorry, you are simply wrong on this

But it doesn't "not work" by definition at that point.

------------------
Letys do it again:

take

1/ (1- V/C (YOU CANCALLIT AS YOU LIKE IT THE NAME DOES NOT MATTER
if v=c you get
1/ 0 infinity -so undefined !!!
you cant multiply in a physics formula
anything by infinity !!
because it is out of your control !!!
IT IS UNDEFINED SITUATION PHYSICALLY
physics is not just mathematics
in physics there are limits of validation
so
you cant say that while v=c the mass becomes infinity because
YOU CANT PROVE THAT SITUATION
not theoretically (what is infinite mass??)
nor experimentally !!!
because you can only say
that with** current tools ERROR MARGINS we can prove it is found or
not
you have to say
THE WHOLE TRUTH NOT A PARTIAL TRUTH
'themass of the photon'
WHAT IS THE MASS OF A PHOTON
WHAT SIZE OF A PHOTON??
ddi you ever cheked experimentally the smallest one??
ddi you ever checked experimentally the
biggest one?? while actually you never chen its
mass
you check its energy !!
2
you aid above that actually we have not only M K S
but

M m K S
while M is relativistic mass and m is the ordinary mass ???
can you show us were else it is presented that way ??

--------------
i snip parts but wil l come to them later
because your system of obfuscation is
piling a lot of issues
and i prefer to deal with them one by one
dont worry- (:-)
later we will come to the other issues
are you against it ??

btw
what business do you have in Australia
while you presented yourself as Artful ??

TIA
