We look at the classical Kaluza‐Klein theory allowing the metric to vary in the fifth dimension. Considering only linear terms we then use a Lorentz invariant distribution of the metric terms to find out how the metric terms vary with respect to frequency. We find that they blow up at high frequency, so that nonlinear terms would have to be taken into account.
