Yes I'm sure I could just do some research on this to find out, but I'm bored and asking here.

If objects increase in mass as they approach the speed of light (with their mass being infinite at the speed of light), then would an object that achieves the speed of light (impossible, but let's say there was some loophole) have infinite mass? If so, would it have an infinite gravitiational pull? If so, would all the rest of the universe be drawn towards it at infinite speed? If so, would the rest of the universe have infinite mass?

Also, if something increases in mass as it approaches the speed of light, doesn't that negate the law of conservation of energy and mass, or is kinetic energy applied to acceleration converted to mass (thus explaining the increasing difficulty of accelerating a given amount of mass)?

Three circles of equal radius are drawn tangential to each other with their centres at the vertices of an equilateral triangleABC.Another equilateral trianglePQR is drawn such that each of its side is tangent to two of the three circles,then he side of trianglePQR is
(a) sqrt(3)/2 times radius of three circles
(b) (1+sqrt(3)) times side of triangle ABC
(c) 5 times radius of three circles
(d) None of these

Can you get the DNA of a dinosaur, by tracing it back through the DNA of modern species?

In other words, DNA, supposedly (my beleifs, but the reason I am asking is due to my ignorance), is like a history book that you can look into the past, so could you not obtain dinosaur DNA, through tracing back through the DNA of modern species?

In horoscope match making, what is Nadi Dosh and what is the solution if the couple have same Nadi?

In astrological horoscope match making, eight gunas of the boy are matched with those of the girl, and points are given for each guna depending on how well the said guna of the boy and the girl match. If the boy and the girl have the same Nadi, say Adi nadi, then they get nil points for this guna, but if their Nadi is different, then they get 8 points for it. What are the implications if a boy and a girl having the same Adi Nadi decide to marry, and do they have any way to counter the negative effects, if any, of having the same Adi Nadi?
