This research paper extends the foundations of Classical Mechanics by introducing Extended Classical Mechanics (ECM) - a comprehensive framework that unifies the dynamics of matter, energy, and gravity through the interplay of Apparent Mass (−Mᵃᵖᵖ), Effective Mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ), and Gravitating Mass (Mɢ). The model re-examines Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation and the equivalence principle (inertial mass = gravitational mass) by incorporating frequency-governed kinetic energy, negative mass interactions, and dynamic field distortions.
Volume 1 emphasises that the classical equality of inertial and gravitational mass remains valid only as a limiting case. Within ECM, matter mass (Mᴍ) interacts with a corresponding negative apparent component (−Mᵃᵖᵖ), producing an effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) that governs acceleration, time-distortion, and phase variation. This coupling naturally explains dark-energy-like expansion without invoking exotic entities.
The work also reconstructs the potential-to-kinetic transition using ΔMᴍ c² = hf, identifying a continuous relationship between mass variation and frequency. The results reproduce experimental observations such as the Shapiro delay, perihelion precession, and gravitational redshift, aligning ECM predictions with both astrophysical and quantum domains.

The core idea of Extended Classical Mechanics is that mass, energy, and frequency form a single dynamic continuum. ECM re-expresses Newtonian and relativistic relations through frequency-dependent transitions of matter mass (Mᴍ) into energy and back, governed by ΔMᴍ c² = hf. Each physical interaction therefore involves a partial transformation of rest-mass energy into frequency-encoded momentum, accompanied by a reversible time-distortion factor.
In the ECM interpretation, every material system possesses an effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) that incorporates both its matter mass (Mᴍ) and a complementary negative apparent component (−Mᵃᵖᵖ). The differential interaction between these components determines the observable acceleration (aᵉᶠᶠ = Fᴇᴄᴍ / Mᵉᶠᶠ) and establishes the governing potential structure of the field. This results in a balanced framework where apparent negative energy density offsets the positive curvature traditionally attributed to spacetime.
The Equivalence Principle is thereby extended: rather than an absolute equality between inertial and gravitational mass, ECM defines a dynamic equivalence that varies with local energy density, effective potential, and temporal phase. This enables a unified treatment of gravitational, electromagnetic, and quantum effects through consistent energy-mass-frequency transformations.
Extended Classical Mechanics (ECM) reformulates classical laws in a manner that unifies dynamic quantities through effective mass transformations and frequency-phase relations. The essential framework begins with the expression:
KEᴇᴄᴍ = (ΔMᴍ⁽ᵈᵉᴮʳᵒᵍˡᶦᵉ⁾ + ΔMᴍ⁽ᴾˡᵃⁿᶜᵏ⁾)c² = ΔMᴍ c² = hf
This relation states that kinetic energy within ECM is governed by the sum of two concurrent frequency components: the de Broglie (wave-matter) contribution and the Planck (quantum-photon) term. Their combination expresses a continuous mass-energy exchange that remains frequency-bound, establishing energy-frequency equivalence as the fundamental driver of motion.
The corresponding effective acceleration and force are defined as:
aᵉᶠᶠ = Fᴇᴄᴍ / Mᵉᶠᶠ = GMᴍ / r² (Mᴍ − Mᵃᵖᵖ)
where the term (Mᴍ − Mᵃᵖᵖ) represents the differential energy structure responsible for observable motion. It shows that negative apparent mass operates as a compensating field component, balancing gravitational attraction by introducing an opposite curvature in the effective potential field.
Energy in ECM is never static; it oscillates between rest-mass and kinetic (frequency) states according to the temporal phase Δt and local effective potential (−ΔPEᴇᴄᴍ). The total energy formulation is:
Eₜₒₜₐₗ = ½ Mᵉᶠᶠ v² + ½ Mᵉᶠᶠ c² − ΔPEᴇᴄᴍ
This implies that even in apparent rest, a body retains an intrinsic potential-kinetic duality through its effective mass, continuously modulated by its local phase environment. When ΔPEᴇᴄᴍ approaches zero, the classical Newtonian limit is recovered. Conversely, when ΔPEᴇᴄᴍ becomes significant, energy exchange between positive and negative domains leads to time distortion and frequency shift, establishing a natural link between ECM dynamics and gravitational redshift phenomena.
Within Extended Classical Mechanics (ECM), every dynamical process - from particle motion to cosmic expansion - is governed by the continuous transformation between positive matter mass (Mᴍ) and negative apparent mass (−Mᵃᵖᵖ). This oscillatory balance determines not only motion but also the persistence of existence. When expressed through effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ), the apparent boundary between classical and quantum domains dissolves, reaffirming that energy, frequency, and time are inseparably entangled.
Gravitational attraction and cosmological repulsion thus appear as two symmetric outcomes of a single extended interaction. A local dominance of Mᴍ generates attractive fields, while a corresponding influence of −Mᵃᵖᵖ manifests as anti-gravitational expansion. ECM therefore interprets dark energy not as an exotic field but as a measurable manifestation of the negative apparent component inherent within all mass systems.
The integration of time distortion, phase displacement, and frequency-governed inertia yields a comprehensive structure unifying electromagnetism, gravitation, and cosmology. Each apparent force arises as a projection of underlying frequency-based mass transitions governed by ΔMᴍ → hf/c².
−ΔMᵃᵖᵖ ⇌ ΔMᴍ ⇌ hf / c²
This cyclic equivalence expresses the core ECM philosophy: that the Universe sustains equilibrium through reciprocal exchange between visible and invisible energy domains. Matter-energy, curvature-phase, and attraction-repulsion are no longer opposites but complementary states of a continuous dynamic field.
The redefinition of kinetic energy, gravitation, and mass in ECM establishes a broader principle of frequency-regulated dynamics. By recognising the effective contribution of −Mᵃᵖᵖ, classical mechanics evolves into a framework that preserves energy symmetry across all scales - from atomic oscillations to cosmic expansion. In this way, ECM extends the classical foundation of physics into a unified continuum of mass, energy, and time.
