Intro

Hopefully, by comparing the classical and the "Special Relativistic" equation we will be able to derive the shape of spacetime curvature that produces gravitation.


Classical Equation of Motion of a Particle in Gravitation Field as a Function of Time

     



"Special Relativistic" Equation of Motion of a Particle in Gravitation Field as a Function of Time

(Based on the definition of acceleration in Special Relativity)
