An Extension of Newton's Equation of Motion

Extract

Classical mechanics failed to solve two problems in own defensive area, namely the motion of Mercury's perihelion, and the high-velcity motion of a charged particle. Today it is generally believed that the concepts of classical mechanics are completely invalid in a treatment of these problems. In this paper, however, we discuss these problems throughly with the concepts of classical mechanics — Euclidean space-time, point of mass and central force. Thereat we introduce a new concept “absolute mass variation”, with which we extend the Newton's second law of motion. In following chapters we show that this extended equation explains the motion of Mercury's perihelion, and that it throws new light on the atomic physics. We also make a study of reconstruction of internal structure of mechanics. We discuss the possibility of the revival of the principal frame of Newton's mechanics.
