On the Relativistic Transformation of Force
Alexander L. Kholmetskii
Keywords: force transformation law, electromotive force, causality principle
The paper analyzes the relativistic law of transformation of force and some accompanied physical difficulties. We focus our attention on the complex systems, consisting of a number of sub-systems i with the velocities ???? i u in a laboratory frame. We establish an analogy between the total force in such system and e.m.f. in a closed deforming circuit with respect to the force transformation law. It has been concluded that for these systems the relativistic law of transformation of force contradicts the causality principle.
