Re: Extension of the Equivalence Principle to include the EM Field

The problem resolves to this, that a material body of mass m is
composed entirely of electromagnetic masses, and because of this, it
is the latter equivalence that takes precendence over the former, i,e,
that wrt the perspective of the point charge itself, it is impossible
for it to distinguish between a gravitational and an electromagnetic
force.

Compare the trajectories of the charged point particle of mass "m" in
a gravitational vs. electromagnetic field.
