The relativistic mass limit could be expressed as v/c = (1+m/M)(1-m/M). The lower case v is the absolute velocity, c is the speed of light, m is the rest mass, and M is the upper bound mass equivalent to Planck mass. For all practical purposes c is a constant. Likewise, the mass upper bound must also be a constant as the quantum of mass. Hence, only and v and m are variables. The product is physically defined as linear momentum. Furthermore, they are inversely proportional. One goes under the other goes over, vice versa. When v ® 0 then m ® M and when m ® 0 then v ® c.
It can be noted that the right-hand side and the left-hand side of the expression are both dimensionless. However, when both sides were multiplied by c the result is Dirac’s relativistic energy. How is it possible that by simple algebraic manipulations the product of dimensionless factor and c becomes square of energy?
