, 19:06, December 3, 2011→Deleted example to releativity
::::::::If it was removed because nuclear power stations exist, then surely it would invalidate every counter example too, right? If what you claim is correct and they do exist, then shouldn't this whole page be deleted?.

::::::::By the way, Newton's laws are entirely relevant here, the second law being incorrect (I know it is really) is fundamental to relativity --[[User:GMilhouse|GMilhouse]] 13:58, 3 December 2011 (EST)

::::::@GMilhouse: Newton's second law is not <math>F=ma</math>. It is <math> F=\dot p</math> (Newton's formulation in ''Principia Mathematica''!), where <math>p=mv</math> (non-relativistically) is momentum. This includes the possibility of varying mass - necessary for instance when modelling rocket flight. Plus, can you provide a reference to an experiment where a non-zero mass particle was accelerated to the speed of light? --[[User:FrederickT3|FrederickT3]] 14:06, 3 December 2011 (EST)
