... mass is equal to relativistic mass. A free falling mass does not loose energy and its mass remains constant. The energy released from its electric field changes into kinetic energy contained in the magnetic field generated by its motion. This energy is part of its relativistic mass. Since it has not ...

... since dt dV Mg M kMV 2 dt dV g that is: kV 2 dt Then we can see, as the drop falls, it’s velocity increases due to gravity. However, there is a limit for this velocity because as the drop speeds up, its acceleration decreases rapidly and will become negligible as the time goes to infinity. So ...
