. It introduces a frequency-governed structure for kinetic energy by decomposing the displaced matter mass (ΔMᴍ) into two physically meaningful components: one arising from translational motion (of de Broglie origin) and the other from intrinsic oscillatory behaviour (of Planck origin). This dual-frequency decomposition establishes the basis for the ECM identity KEᴇᴄᴍ = ΔMᴍc² = hf, which Appendix 40 then tests and confirms through the thermionic behaviour of electrons in CRT systems.Together, Appendices 3 and 40 offer a theory-experiment complementarity within ECM. Appendix 3 provides the structural mechanism showing how kinetic energy arises from internally displaced mass modulated by frequency, while Appendix 40 demonstrates this identity in action through physical data. Readers seeking a physical explanation of hf—grounded in mass redistribution rather than quantum postulates—will find Appendix 3 indispensable to understanding the empirical results of Appendix 40.
