Re: Special Relativity I

I should add that in my view, v and c have different physical contexts between space-time and E-K. In space-time, v is defined in terms of orthogonal (x,t) with c being just another velocity. However, in E-K, all v's are independent of c, resulting in restmass being interpreted as m0 = pCT, (a "...
