Mass in special relativity what causes these particles to be termed "massless." However, even massless particles have a relativistic mass, which varies with their observed energy in various frames of reference, The invariant mass is the ratio of four-momentum (the four-dimensional generalization of classical momentum) to four-velocity: and is also the ratio of four-acceleration to four-force when the rest mass is constant. The four-dimensional form of Newton's second law is: The relativistic expressions for "E" and "p" obey the relativistic energy–momentum relation: where the m is the rest mass, or the invariant mass for systems, and "E" is the total energy. The equation is
Numerical model of the Solar System "a", "a") can be calculated from Newton's Law of Gravitation. Each body attracts each other body, the total acceleration being the sum of all these attractions. Next one chooses a small time-step Δ"t" and applies Newton's Second Law of Motion. The acceleration multiplied with Δ"t" gives a correction to the velocity. The velocity multiplied with Δ"t" gives a correction to the position. This procedure is repeated for all other bodies. The result is a new value for position and velocity for all bodies. Then, using these new values one starts over the whole calculation for the next time-step Δ"t". Repeating
