Where Is The Kinetic Energy of a Bullet Stored?
When a bullet is fired, an explosive charge imparts kinetic energy to the
bullet. That kinetic energy travels with the bullet and is transferred to the
target when the bullet strikes. The question to be answered is where that
kinetic energy resides while the bullet is in flight. It obviously travels with
the bullet as is shown by the fact that stopping the bullet anywhere along its
flight path will impart that energy to the stopping means. Where that energy is
stored is revealed by the corrected Lorentz Transformations for Velocity using
the more rational F,L,T system of units. To accomplish this it is first
necessary to correct an error made in the derivation of the Lorentz
Transformation for Transverse Force. Apparently, for some hare-brained reason,
this transformation was apparently derived using Maxwell's Equations instead of
making use of the basic Lorentz Transformations and E=M*C^2 alone. The use of
this approach led to the conclusion that the Lorentz Transformation for
Transverse Force was the reciprocal of its correct value. The fact that an
error existed in that derivation was revealed by the classic "Right Angle Lever
Paradox" which those familiar with undergraduate level physics and/or mechanics
should be able to demolish in a few minutes.
Let us consider that an idealized bullet which, when at rest consists of
three ideal "mass less" springs at right angles to each other and aligned with
one of the springs parallel to the bullets of the path. The "rest mass" of the
bullet is then inserted in the springs by compressing them equally. The energy
stored in each of the springs is half of the product of the distance of the
their compression and their stiffness. When kinetic energy is added to the
bullet, the force compressing the parallel spring is increased by the Lorentz
Transformation for Parallel Force, which is unity, while the distance of
compression is reduced by the Lorentz Transformation for Length and energy must
LEAVE the parallel spring. WE can conclude, as a result, that energy must leave
the parallel spring and travel in the space around it (presumably in a disk
oriented perpendularly to the velocity vector).
In the transverse axes, however, a different situation exists. The
distance which these springs are compressed is unchanged by the velocity but
the force required to compress the spring is INCREASED by the Lorentz
Transformation for Transverse Force. As result, the energy of compression
stored in the transverse springs is increased proportionally. The energy of
compression in these springs is increased in direct proportion to the increase
of kinetic energy of the object. It would appear, therefore, that kinetic
energy is stored within the moving object and in a disk like (perpendicular to
its velocity vector) region of space around the object. (Some responses have
indicated that a further explanation is required for those readers with a
limited imagination. A nucleon can be considered analogous to three orthagonal
springs in which the energy represented by the nucleons mass is stored by
compression. This analogy applies to all other entities containing energy.)

Hey, stooopid Ernest Wittke - Do you want EVIDENCE? Each of the 24
GPS satellites carries either four cesium atomic clocks or three
rubidum atomic clocks in orbit, with full relativistic corrections
being applied.
