Abstract
This paper is the first of two discussing the equivalence of inertial and gravitational masses and the accuracy of Einstein?s theory of gravity. The papers study the gravitational field near a spherically symmetric non-rotating massive body. This first part of the work studies the well-known Schwarzschild metric, which describes the space-time in the vicinity of such bodies, according to Einstein?s theory of gravity. The Schwarzschild metric is derived from first principles, and without the use of Einstein?s field equation. The basis for the derivation is a new mass equivalence principle derived as a consequence of thought experiments and Newton?s gravitational law.
