Jainism Through Science which reach the 'c'. While for the common velocity vectors, the result is approximately the same according to Galilean theory and the theory of relativity.
The equation that calculates the mass of mobile objects, doesn't give a satisfactory solution for sunlight particles i. e. photon mo
particles, because this equation tells us that "v=
√1-v2/c2
Now, in the case of photon particles, their velocity is 3 x 105 km/sec. i. e. equal to 'c'. These photon particles are nothing but a special type of fundamental particles, so they must have some mass. If the mass of photon particles is not equal to zero, but even it is a little more than zero, me becomes infinite (a). That is, the mass of photon particles becomes infinite and hence according to Newtonian equation F = ma, any type of the greatest force doesn't positively or negatively accelerate the photon particles. i.e. They must be very powerful like micro bullets, and because of their infinite mass they must be black-holes. But as we experience in our daily life, the photon particles of sun-light do not have infinite mass, so scientists have to believe that the mass of photon particles is zero, when they are at rest.
And also this equation can't apply to the particles that have velocity greater than light-velocity, because here 'v' is always greater than `c'. And if (v>c) v is greater than c, the value of 2/2 must be greater than 1. So we will get negative value of 1-2/c2 and a square root of a negative number is imaginary. So Einstein had to believe that there is no existence of the particles that have greater velocity than light-velocity.
But Jain philosophy doesn't accept this posulate. As shown in the Jain philosophical scriptures, the particle or an object that has greater velocity than light-velocity can decrease its velocity up to zero and a particle which is at rest now, can maintain the velocity many times more than light-velocity. We find a reference to this fact in the sacred Jain philosophical treatise named the BHAGAVATĪ SUTRA or the VYAKHYAPRAJNAPTI, which is as follows. This reference is in the form of question and answer between Lord
