The dependence of free fall acceleration on speed in the Schwarzschild spacetime is obtained. It is confirmed that gravitation mass coincides with inertial mass.

It is shown that the gravitational and inertial masses of a photon or, indeed, of any body are equal. Motion past and free fall onto a center of gravitational attraction are considered.
Light bending effect and space curvature
- Physics

The doubling of the gravitational light-bending effect, in comparison with Newton’s theoretical prediction, is explained by the space curvature.
Photon's Mass

The double deflection of a light ray near an attracting center, which was predicted by Einstein, is explained by the space curvature.

Obviously, in Galilean physics, the universality of free fall implies an inertial frame, which in turns implies that the mass m of the falling body is omitted (because it is a test mass; put…
