Abstract

In this paper, the Maxwell-Lorentz equations have been derived for a particle of mass moving in the presence of other particles. It is proved that the gravitational field due to a moving particle consist of i) an irrotational part (gradient of a scalar) and ii) a part depending on velocity and a rotational part (curl of a vector). Finally the Lorentz Force equation and the relativistic equation for planetary motion are derived.
