We read in many books that Newtons physics does not lead to the so-called “Relativistic Corrections”. What is wrong about Newtons Physics (as applied usually)?

A. – The principle of mass-energy conservation has not been fully applied in the past when using Newton’s physics. This is explained in more details in “chapter one” of the Book: Einstein’s Theory of Relativity versus Classical Mechanics”. Here is an example. Let us give a kinetic energy “Ek” to a mass having an initial mass Mo. The initial mass Mo becomes slightly larger, due to that increase of kinetic energy (which possesses mass). From the relationship Ek=Mkc2, the mass increase is: Mk=Ek/c2. The final moving mass Mf is then: Mf= Mo + Mk = Mo+ Ek/c2 It is that small increase of mass (Ek/c2) which has been neglected in the past and which renders Newton’s physics compatible with all observations without using Einstein’s hypotheses of relativity.
