Abstract

A variety of problems in Relativity theories, and even incompatibility with other branches of physics, have been appearing in the literature for many decades. Fitting together the pieces of the physics puzzle seems to be a long standing problem. However, by applying natural philosophy principles to fundamental laws concerning gravity, energy, and relativity, an error in Newton's law of gravity is discovered and corrected, real relativistic changes to objects in moving frames are derived, and the pieces of the puzzle then fit together. The seemingly independent fundamental laws of physics are shown to be related to each other by the corrected laws of relativity and gravity. It is shown that the source of gravity is almost certainly electrostatic in nature, the attractive force being proportional to the number of nucleons in objects, shedding some light on the construction of neutrons and nuclei. Some of the discoveries herein are: the source of gravity is not mass, c is not a universal constant and the Planck units are nonsense. A review of the errors found and their causes completes this brief investigation into relativity and gravity.
