mum and constant. (viii) The theory has led these concepts: (a) Length, time and mass are relative and variable (b) Mass increase with velocity (c) Length decreases with velocity (d) Time contracts with velocity. (e) Concept of simultaneity of space and time have only relative meaning and not absolute.
(f) Motions and rest are relative independent of any inert or active medium. Systems can work without them and therefore, not need.
Length, mass and time are absolute and invariable under all conditions. They are related but not inseparably Simultaneity phenomena is not found in canons, but it could inferred absolute because of similar nature. The third predication gives hint at simultaneity, however. Motion and rest depend on absolute and independent mediums. They can not occur without them. Despite their current relativity, their absoluteness still remain intaci. Light and heat (only the two terms in canons) radiations are mattergie or corpuscular in nature. Their wave nature is not traceable in canons. However, Anekāntavāda may support duality with different aspectal view. This type of relationship is not traceable in canons.
(g) Radiations are not purely waves, but particles (quanta) of energy also. Thus they show a dual nature.
(h) Mass is a form of concentrated energy as per, E-mc, Both are interconvertible as below: (a) Materialization of energy High energy gamma/cosmic rays -electron -positron pair (b) Energiziation of matter.
