Abstract

We investigate the dynamics of particles moving in a spacetime augmented by one extra dimension in the context of the induced matter theory of gravity. We examine the appearance of a fifth force as an effect caused by the extra dimension and discuss two different approaches to the fifth force formalism. We then give two simple examples of application of both approaches by considering the case of a Ricci-flat warped-product manifold and a generalized Randall–Sundrum space.
