Oct 12, 2018 at 10:50 comment added juanrga @user No one is moving part of the operator $d/dt$ over $v$, what is being moved is the differential in the denominator in the fraction $dX/dt$ because the action of the operator is identical to the fraction of differentials $(d/dt) v = dv/dt$
May 25, 2018 at 13:36 comment added user @Physikslover it's absolutely not identical. $\frac{d}{dt}$ is notation for the differential operator which is something that maps functions to other functions. On the other hand $F \space dx$ is a differential form, where $dx$ is a function that maps tangent vectors (pairs of vectors) to scalars. Moving the $\frac{1}{dt}$ over from $v$ to $dx$ is mathematical nonsense.

May 21, 2018 at 18:28 comment added AccidentalFourierTransform $m:=\sqrt{E^2-p^2}$ is the definition of mass, from which $E^2=p^2+m^2$ trivially (and rigorously) follows. That's pretty much it...
