It is shown that if we can define a physical quantity with proper character in a given inertial reference frame (kinematic, dynamic, electromagnetic in its nature) which transforms when detected from a reference frame relative to which it moves with velocity $u_x$ as $F=\f{F^o}{\sqrt{1-\f{u_x^2}{c^2}}}$ then we can derive for it transformation equations following one and the same procedure, which involves the addition law of relativistic velocities which can be derived without using the Lorentz transformations. The transformation equation derived that way, generates the physical quantities $u_xF$ and $u_x'F'$, for which physicists invent names reflecting theirs physical meaning.
