If an object has an acceleration = c/1000 m/s2 then according to
Newtonian calculations it would reach the speed of light in 1000
seconds. But then there is the time dilation effect sqrt(1-
v2/c2) which when multiplied by the above Newtonian calculations
results in the velocity = 0.0 m/s at time = 1000 s According to
my Microsoft Excel chart (below) the maximum speed the object
can attain is 0.5c at time = 707 seconds. Is this the braking
effect of GR because I read somewhere on this forum that GR
actually begins to brake an in-falling object so that the object
stops at the event horizon? Or maybe I'm just not calculating it
correct ....
