Covariant Formulation for Second Law of Motion

Dr. Dev Raj Mishra

Abstract: The inclusion of time as a forth co-ordinate of Minkowski space and the quest for the corresponding fourth components of Physical Quantities suggest new modifications to the laws of Physics. This study presents modification to Newton’s Second law of motion leading to a compact covariant formulation which successfully explains the occurrence of various pseudo forces in nature.
