Weber-like interactions and energy conservation | F. Bunchaft
; S. Carneiro
; | Date: |
20 Aug 1997 | Journal: | Found.Phys.Lett. 10 (1997) 393-401 | Subject: | gr-qc | Abstract: | Velocity dependent forces varying as $k(hat{r}/r)(1 - mu dot{r}^2 + gamma r ddot{r})$ (such as Weber force), here called Weber-like forces, are examined from the point of view of energy conservation and it is proved that they are conservative if and only if $gamma=2mu$. As a consequence, it is shown that gravitational theories employing Weber-like forces cannot be conservative and also yield both the precession of the perihelion of Mercury as well as the gravitational deflection of light. | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9708047 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
