Free Fall of a Cylindrical Mass Electrically Charged Bodies

TL;DR

This paper proposes that electrically charged masses in free fall violate the Galilean law of universal free fall due to gravitational and electromagnetic energy transfer mechanisms, suggesting an experimental test for this phenomenon.

Contribution

It introduces a novel explanation involving gravitational and electromagnetic Poynting vectors for the energy gain of charged bodies in free fall, challenging classical free fall assumptions.

Findings

Charged bodies can acquire kinetic energy during free fall.

The gravitational and electromagnetic Poynting vectors explain energy transfer.

Potential experimental verification is proposed.

Abstract

The gravitational Poynting vector provides a mechanism for the transfer of gravitational energy to a system of falling objects. In the following we will show that the gravitational poynting vector together with the electromagnetic Poynting vector provides a mechanism to explain how massive electrically charged bodies acquire kinetic energy during a free fall. We will demontrate that falling electrically charged masses violate the Galilean law of universal free fall. An experiment is suggested to confirm or not the predicted phenomena.
