First order relativistic correction to Newtonian kinetic energypic.twitter.com/1dFEVb4bG1

Series explain in many phenomena. Can see that v<<<<<<c for commonly found or massive objects and for those minute objects like photons etc whose v approaches c, the m is negligible. Thus 2nd term onwards, the correction is useful only for those with v~c, and decent 'm'.

About the mass?

The only statement that seems to make sense is that v ‘approaches’ c for photons .. but even this isn’t right since v is *exactly* c
