I'm an independent researcher, and after years of personal exploration, I'm introducing what I believe could be a new foundational law of motion — one that may extend or even challenge our classical understanding rooted in Newtonian and relativistic mechanics.

I call it the NKT Law on Position and Varying Inertia Interaction.

💥 The Core Idea:

Inertia is not a fixed intrinsic property of mass — it varies dynamically depending on position within a field or system.

Let me explain.

⚙️ What's Wrong with the Old View?

In Newtonian mechanics, mass = inertia, and it doesn’t change unless acted on externally. In general relativity, mass curves spacetime, but inertia itself is not a function of position. What if this is incomplete?

Enter the NKT Law, which proposes:

A body's inertia is a dynamic variable that depends on its position relative to other masses or fields.

In other words, inertia interacts with position — not just velocity or acceleration.

🔄 A Simple Analogy:

Imagine a spaceship accelerating in deep space. Classical physics says its inertia remains constant — only its speed changes. But what if, based on its position within a gravitational (or interaction) field, its resistance to acceleration (i.e., its inertia) subtly changes?

What if this could explain:

  • The apparent anomalies in galaxy rotation curves (without dark matter)?

  • Why spacecraft sometimes experience unexpected accelerations (Pioneer anomaly anyone)?

  • Why energy conservation seems to break in certain extreme conditions?

🧠 Implications:

  • The NKT Law could offer a new interpretation of Mach’s Principle.

  • It might bridge a conceptual gap between Newtonian inertia and quantum field fluctuations.

  • Could be relevant to understanding inertia modification (e.g. in speculative propulsion systems).

🧪 Mathematical Preview (simplified):

I’m working on a full mathematical formalism, but the base formulation relates inertial mass mim_i as a function of position rr:

mi(r)=m0⋅f(r)m_i(r) = m_0 \cdot f(r)

Where f(r)f(r) is a function capturing interaction potential (gravitational, spatial configuration, field density, etc). Think of it as inertia being context-sensitive.


🧭 Where to Learn More?

I’ve uploaded a preprint outlining the foundations and proposed experiments:
