IV. Derivation of the principle of equivalence.


The incredible result obtained for the motion equation of an electron in gravity: eq308 shows clearly that the law is only dependant of the way the speed of light changes, especially if the Newtonian equation used is not exactly in agreement with nature, the use of an other relation (more exact) for the gravity force will certainly lead to the same motion equation.

Now, if we make he hypothesis, that the different elementary particles may have a wave structure like the electron, the equation above means that the principle of equivalence is demonstrated and that probably it is useless to repeat the Eötvös' experiment or other experiments of the same kind. Whatever the rest mass of a particle, the motion equation doesn't depend of it.
