Abstract
Equivalence of the two famous Einstein equivalences is, U denoting the cosmological potential, expressed à la Mach as U=c 2. The electrostatic analog is induction of an extra mass −c −2eV (esu) in an electron immersed in the constant Coulomb potential c=Q/R enclosed in a charged sphere. This effect has been evidenced in a recent experiment by Mikhailov.
