Question

If concept of relativistic mass is correct, then does it creates gravitational field at relativistic speeds which could breakdown the special Theory of relativity? Explain using Mathematics.

Answer 1

Although the term "relativistic mass" is used in many textbooks there seems to be a consensus that it is a misnomer - Einstein, apparently never used the term "rest mass" only the term "mass". What increases with speed is the momentum (M * V)  not M by itself.
