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
AbstractVelocity 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.
