So, any mass under acceleration gains mass, because F = ma and c is the

Then, if you have a ring cyclotron on a barge, and you can recover the
energy from accelerating particles by slowing them with 100%
efficiency, can't that cause oscillations on the lake, yet the ring
cyclotron would be at equilibrium?


Ross--Are you confusing velocity with acceleration?
