General-Relativistic Equations of Motion in terms of Energy and Angular Momentum

General Physics 2012-05-15 v1 Physics Education

Abstract

An attempt is made to describe the general-relativistic equations of motion for the Schwarzschild geometry in terms of the classical concepts of energy and angular momentum. Using the customary terms the geodesic equations can be viewed in a way that is very helpful in providing the physical meaning of the mathematical development.
