It highlights stationary and moving charges in electronic devices and cathode-ray tubes, where electrons gain kinetic energy. Additionally, it explores cyclotron motion of charged particles in magnetic fields, explaining concepts like electron cyclotron frequency and motion radius.

Given this assumption, we can describe the trajectory of any free-falling test particle as a geodesic. Equivalence of inertial and gravitational mass holds for Newtonian gravity, so it is indeed possible to redo Newtonian gravity as a theory of curved spacetime.
