Question: Lorentz transformation involves mass change but mass cannot be transformed into another form?

Answered by Others: The Lorentz transformation is a mathematical tool that helps understand how physical quantities change under relativistic conditions. It does not involve the direct conversion of mass into another form, such as energy or frequency. The Lorentz transformation deals with the relativistic effects of high velocities.

In the context of the Lorentz transformation, the mass of an object does not change. The concept of "relativistic mass" was introduced in the early days of special relativity to describe how an object's mass appears to change with its velocity. However, this concept has fallen out of favor in modern physics, and the more accepted view is that an object's mass is an invariant quantity, meaning it remains the same regardless of its velocity or the reference frame from which it is observed.

The Lorentz transformation does not involve any change in an object's rest mass. It is a mathematical tool used to understand how physical quantities vary between different inertial reference frames and is consistent with the principles of special relativity. Mass (m) remains an invariant quantity in all inertial reference frames, meaning its value remains the same for all observers, regardless of their relative velocities.

Massless discrete energy (hf) is stored in matter mass (m) without considering wave speed:

Summary: Mass and energy are interconnected, but not always. Energy exists without being converted into mass, such as photons. Mass is converted into energy through nuclear reactions, fission, fusion, or radioactive decay. Energy is stored in mass without considering wave speed. Energy conversion units include Joules and electron volts. Small amounts of mass can be converted into energy through fission, fusion, or spontaneous radioactive decay.

Description: Energy exists in massless subatomic particles like photons, but not always vice versa. Electrons absorb photons without mass change. Mass converts into energy through nuclear reactions or radioactive decay. Discrete energy is stored in the mass without nuclear reactions, without considering wave speed. 1 kg m^2/s^2 energy is the derived unit of 1 joule in SI units for mass-energy conversion. The electron volt (eV) is a unit of energy. 1 eV = 1.6 * 10^-19 J. Incredible amounts of energy are converted from small amounts of mass through fission, fusion, and spontaneous radioactive decay. The mass of matter (m) contains discrete energy, similar to the atomic nucleus, electron, and electron energy. 

Conclusion: Therefore, when mass represented by (m), it is equal to (m + Em) or (m + hf) or (m + Ep), representing the cold mass of matter, the discrete energy of the mass, the discrete energy of the photon at its frequency, or the discrete energy corresponding to Planck's constant, respectively.

Lorentz transformation, but mass cannot be transformed into another form:

It's nice to say that where there's mass, there's energy, but not always it's actually the opposite.

Because some forms of energy exist without being converted into mass. such as massless energetic subatomic particles, such as photons.

A photon absorbed by an electron is not converted into mass but remains there as electron energy, without changing the electron's mass.

Mass is converted into energy by nuclear reactions of atoms, especially through fission and fusion, or spontaneous radioactive decay in unstable atoms.

Otherwise, mass is not converted to pure energy without nuclear reactions but instead energy is stored in the mass without consideration of the wave speed.

In mass-energy conversion, 1 kg m^2/sec^2 mass of energy is called 1 Joule. Thus, the Joule is a derived unit of energy in SI units.

The electron volt (eV) is a unit of energy.

1 eV = 1.6 * 10^-19 J.

In particular, small amounts of mass are turned into energy from the breaking up through fission, or by combination through fusion of the nuclei of atoms. 

Even spontaneous radioactive decay converts some mass into incredible amounts of energy.

In conclusion, Lorentz's transformation of mass into another form is physically false.

Experiment made with piezoelectric film sensors:

When a mechanical force is applied to the piezoelectric film sensor, the seismic mass loads the piezoelectric element according to Newton's second law of motion F=ma. The force applied to the piezoelectric material is observed in the change in electrostatic force or voltage generated by the piezoelectric material.

Planck Equation and Wave motion:

Planck's equation doesn't define electromagnetic wave motion, but Planck units do, and the energy description invokes wave motion.

Planck units are a set of units of measurement defined exclusively in terms of four universal physical constants. Originally proposed by the German physicist Max Planck in 1899, these units are a system of natural units because their definition is based on properties of nature. It may be mentioned here that Einstein first published his special theory of relativity in 1905, which describes his revolutionary ideas about light, time and energy.

The four universal constants, by definition, have a numerical value of 1 when expressed in these units:

1. Speed of light in vacuum, c,
2. Gravitational constant, G,
3. Reduced Planck constant, ħ, and
4. Boltzmann constant, kB.

• Planck length = ℓP = L ≈ 1.61626 × 10^−35 m; 

• Planck time = tP = T ≈ 5.391247 × 10^−44 s; 

• ℓP/tP is the ratio of the Planck length to the Planck time;

Since, ℓP/tP = (1.61626 × 10^−35 m) / (5.391247 × 10^−44 s);

1. To divide two numbers in scientific notation, we subtract the exponents of the 10 and divide the coefficients:

2. Coefficient: (1.61626) / (5.391247) ≈ 0.299792458

3. Exponent: (10^(-35)) / (10^(-44)) = 10^(-35 - (-44)) = 10^9

4. So the simplified value is approximately:

5. 0.299792458 × 10^9 m/s

6. Now, we recognize that this is the speed of light in a vacuum, which is denoted by 'c':

7. c ≈ 2.99792458 × 10^8 m/s

8. So, the simplified expression is:

9. (1.61626 × 10^−35 m) / (5.391247 × 10^−44 s) ≈ 2.99792458 × 10^8 m/s;

The ratio of the Planck length to the Planck time (ℓP/tP) yields a value to the speed of light in a vacuum, c;

This is a fundamental constant in physics and is denoted by 'c'.
