Will the increased mass & gravitational field of an object moving at a speed approaching c be transferred to a

Question

If an object is moving in a vacuum at a speed approaching c, its mass and gravitational field have increased from when the object was at rest. So the object is moving along…and it hits a stationary object. Assuming the objects are not vaporized, and the stationary object hasn’t started moving yet at the moment of impact, will the mass and gravitational field of the object that hit the stationary object be transferred to the stationary object?
I’m not sure if kinetic energy would have anything to do with this situation or not; if so, enlighten me.

Answer 1

They would both be vapourised. But nothing in the theory of relativity invalidates the law of conservation of momentum. Most of the kinetic energy of your fast moving object will be converted into heat in the collision. A great deal of heat. The temperature will be millions of degrees, just like a nuclear blast. The rate at which heat is radiated goes up as the fourth power of the absolute temperature. At these temperatures most of the heat energy is radiated very quickly as X-rays, visible light and heat. You'll also get some exotic particles like neutrinos and mesons produced, just like when you smash sub-atomic particles into a target in an accelerator. So a few seconds after the collision you'll have a rapidly cooling, expanding cloud of gas, moving at high speed in the same direction as the original fast moving object.

Answer 2

As far as I can guess there is no change in mass or gravity for difference in velocity, but the contrary could be quite true. As an object is accelerated to light speed, the matter of the object would leave behind it like a comet tail various energies because atomic structures can not endure the velocity as it increases to C, the universe and all its forces would change relative to the velocity (like one thing hitting another, the change is relative to their composit velocity expressed as power at the time contact). As subatomic particals fall behind, the atomic structures lose integrity and the disintegration excellerates as the velocity increases. Terrage accures as the thing travels through successive gravity and electromagnetic radiations (the energy fields of other things) and the relative effects increase as power is delivered into the propelled object.

It is similar to carrying something up a hill and then dropping it over a cliff; all the force you used to get it there is expended when it hits the bottom of the cliff.

Answer 3

According to Kesolov's theory of group dynamics an object's momentum divided by its mass multiplied by square root of operational resistance can be subtracted from the mass of a stationary object's mass multiplied by its surface area divided by pi. The result is energy transferrence, however this does not apply if Maslov's theorum can be applied to the situation or if either object has been coated with Wesson Oil.

Answer 4

If the energy is absorbed by the object it will create heat, the whole object will vibrate faster all over and on average this will cause it to have a slightly higher mass. So the energy will indeed raise the mass of the overall object.

Answer 5

no. it will transfer half of it's energy if they are the same exact size and or material. size difference means everything. just think of dropping a basket ball of of a roof. everytime it hits the ground the ball exspells more energy to push its self back up. if the ground was soft and absorbed the impact the ball would either stop or bounce fewer times.

Answer 6

i beleve that it would be 1/3 of the moveing objects kenetic energy that will be transfered. Only speed and volocity will trancfer but mass and gravity(being they are directly related) will not trancfer.
