Natural Science Forum / Physics / Relativity / March 2007I got the transformation wrong
Imagine two masses, at the origin and (0,1,0). They attract at certain gravity, and have certain acceleration. Now an observer moving along the x-axis will see a slower acceleration, since the y-distance is invariant and time dilates. But, he measures greater masses! How can bigger masses attract weaker? > Imagine two masses, at the origin and (0,1,0). They attract at certain > gravity, and have certain acceleration.
