Classical
mechanics, a cornerstone of physics, offers profound insights into
the fundamental principles governing the behaviour of physical
systems. This comprehensive study delves into the intricate dynamics
of classical mechanics, unravelling the complex relationships between
force, mass, and energy.
Beginning with an overview of classical mechanics, the study establishes the
foundational principles laid down by Newton, emphasizing concepts such as inertia, acceleration, and the

Mathematical Presentation
In the equation F = m⋅a, the mass (m) (also called
inertial mass) is inversely proportional to its acceleration (a), presenting (m
∝ 1/a) in case of a net force F acting on the mass. When this net force (F) is also directly
proportional to acceleration (a), presenting (F ∝ a). Moreover, a mass
(m) remains constant at relative rest, but when in motion, the mass (m) gains
Kinetic energy (KE), correspondingly increasing its effective mass (mᴇꜰꜰ). This action of the force (F) on the mass (m) adds kinetic
energy (KE) and so correspondingly, the acting force (F) adds effective mass (mᴇꜰꜰ) through the addition of kinetic
energy (KE) within the mass (m). So we can express:
1. F → m⋅a → F ∝ a, a ∝1/m when F acting:
This expression implies that according to Newton's
second law of motion, force (F) is directly proportional to acceleration (a)
when a constant mass (m) is acted upon by a force. Conversely, acceleration is
inversely proportional to mass when a force is
acting on it. This means that if the force acting on an object increases, its
acceleration will also increase, and if the mass of the object increases, its
acceleration will decrease for the same force.
2. F → m + mᴇꜰꜰ, (F → a → mᴇꜰꜰ):
Here, it's
suggested that the net force (F) acting on an object contributes to both its
inertial mass (m) and its effective mass (mᴇꜰꜰ). When a force is applied to an object and it gains kinetic
energy (KE), the object's effective mass
increases. This implies that the force not only affects the object's inertial
mass but also contributes to its effective mass due to the gained kinetic
energy.
3. Eᴛᴏᴛ = PE + KE:
This
equation represents the total energy (Eᴛᴏᴛ) of the system, which is
the sum of its potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). In the context of
the discussion, it suggests that the total energy of the system is composed of
both potential and kinetic energy, where kinetic energy contributes to the
effective mass of the object.
4. F = m⋅a → (m + mᴇꜰꜰ) → PE + KE = Eᴛᴏᴛ:
This
expression further elaborates on the relationship between force, mass, and
energy. It suggests that the force applied to an object results in an increase
in both its rest mass and effective mass, due
to the gained kinetic energy. The total energy of the system is then the sum of
potential energy and kinetic energy, reflecting the contributions of both forms
of energy to the system's dynamics.
5. Therefore, F induces mᴇꜰꜰ (KE):
This
statement summarizes the previous expressions
by concluding that the force induces an increase in the effective mass of the
object, primarily through the addition of kinetic energy. It emphasizes the
role of kinetic energy in altering the effective mass of an object under the
influence of an external force.
6. Integration of Classical Dynamics with Relativistic Principles
In
the context of classical dynamics, where force, mass, and energy play
fundamental roles in describing the behaviour of physical systems, it's
essential to integrate these principles with relativistic dynamics, especially
when dealing with high speeds approaching the speed of light (c). This
integration provides a more comprehensive understanding of motion across
different inertial reference frames and elucidates how relativistic effects
influence the dynamics of the system.
Key Concepts:
6.1.
Relativistic Lorentz Transformation:
Relativistic
dynamics introduces the Lorentz factor (γ), which affects the behaviour of
objects moving at significant fractions of the speed of light. The Lorentz
factor, denoted by γ = 1/√(1 - v²/c²), accounts for velocity-induced
effects on object behaviour and becomes crucial in scenarios where classical
mechanics alone cannot adequately describe the system.
6.2. Inertial Mass and Acceleration:
The
classical relationship between mass (m) and acceleration (a), as described by Newton's second law (F = m⋅a), remains applicable
in relativistic contexts. However, at relativistic speeds, the inertial mass of
an object undergoes changes due to the effects
of kinetic energy, leading to modifications in its effective mass (mᴇꜰꜰ).
6.3. Force and Effective Mass:
Relativistic
dynamics extends the understanding of force-mass dynamics by considering the
contribution of kinetic energy (KE) to
the effective mass of an object. The net force (F) acting on the object not
only alters its inertial mass but also influences its effective mass,
reflecting the energy-mass equivalence principle.
6.4. Total Energy of the System:
The
total energy of a system, represented by the equation Eᴛᴏᴛ = PE + KE, encompasses both
potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). Relativistic dynamics
acknowledges the role of kinetic energy in shaping the dynamics of the system,
where KE contributes to the effective mass
of the object.
Conclusion: Integrating classical dynamics with relativistic principles
provides a more comprehensive framework for understanding the behaviour of
physical systems, particularly in scenarios involving high speeds or
significant energy considerations. By considering the interplay between force,
mass, and energy within the context of relativistic dynamics, researchers can
gain deeper insights into the underlying mechanisms governing complex phenomena
across different inertial reference frames. This holistic approach enhances our
understanding of acceleration dynamics and its implications in both classical
and relativistic physics.

through mechanical vibrations, leads to a corresponding acceleration, which can
be measured electrically through the generated charge. This principle
underscores the direct relationship between force, mass, and acceleration, as
described by Newtonian mechanics.

The classical elucidation of relativistic dynamics
expands our understanding of force-mass dynamics across different inertial
reference frames. At relativistic speeds, the Lorentz factor (γ) becomes
crucial in accounting for velocity-induced effects on object behaviour. This
factor influences not only the inertial mass of an object but also its
effective mass, as kinetic energy contributes to the overall mass-energy
equivalence.
Key Concepts:
Force-Mass Equivalence in Piezoelectric Materials: The
force acting on a piezoelectric material leads to displacement, demonstrating
force-mass equivalence through Hooke's law.
Application of Newton's Second Law in
Accelerometers: Newton's second law governs the
motion of piezoelectric accelerometers, where force leads to measurable
acceleration.
