*E = mc^2
'E' is the Energy
'm' is the mass ( kg)
'c' is the speed of light in a vacuum ( 3.8 x 10^8 m/s)
'c^2' is the speed of light squared.
Hence E = kgm^2/s^2 , which are named 'Joules'.
It is the Einsteinian equation , that if a mass looses mass, then the difference in mass is the energy released.
NB It is very similar to the Kinetic Energy (K.E.) equation, which is
K.E. = 0.5massvelocity^2.

∙ 13y agoE=mc2 is called the "energy mass equivalence principle" because it relates energy and mass. Note the the mass has units of eV/c2

Is uranium matter or energy?
matter...but using Enstein's equation of general relativity (E=mc2), you can determine the equivalent energy contained of a given mass of matter, where c=the speed of light (186,000 mi/sec).
How do you create matter?
Matter can neither be created or destroyed, only changed into other forms of matter or energy as shown by Einstein's equation: E=MC2 Or, by rearranging the equation: M=E/C2 To create matter you would need to build a device that takes energy and turns it into matter.
When you write a word equation what are the reactants and products?
E (energy) = mc2 is one equation where according to Einstein, energy can be either the reactant or product. Another good example is photosynthesis. 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (UV from sunlight) -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 In this equation energy is a reactant. The reverse reaction is respiration which is given by: C6H12O6 + 6O2-----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy - here energy is a product.
A chemical equation that is consistent with the law of conservation of mass?
All of them as long as they are balanced correctly.
Can we change the energy into matter?
Yes. You just need an awful lot of energy. Look at Einstein's equation, e = mc2. Well, c2 is very large, about 9 x 1016 joules per kilogram (or m2/s2), so you effectively need the fusion power of the Sun to initiate a conversion from energy into matter.
What does the equation E equals mc squared represent?
E=mc2 E=Energy m=mass c=the speed of light in a vacuum The equation relates mass to energy. Einstein made it.
Which kind of energy is described by the equation E equals mc2?
Mass Energy.
The equation E equals MC2 is the theory of what?
Mass-energy equivalence
Is E equals MC2 the equation for a wormhole?
No, E=mc2 is an equation to explain that matter and energy are two different forms that are the same. Matter can turn into energy and energy can turn into matter.
What is the sum to e equals mc2?
There is no sum of e=mc2, it is an equation concerning matter and energy. e=mc2 stands for: Energy equals mass times the velocity of light squared. E = M C 2
Albert Einstein equation E equals mc2 states the relation between energy?
...and Mass
How did scientists apply Albert Einsteins equation e equals mc2?
How did scientists apply albert einsteins equation e equals mc2?"
What is the formula that relates matter to energy?
E = mc2
Relativity theory equals e equals mc2?
Yes. It is Einstein's celebrated equation, E=mc2. It means "energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." It tells how to convert mass into energy. Einstein showed through this that mass and energy can be changed into each other.
How big is e equals mc2?
e = mc2 is an equation, it has no size of its own. The value of e (energy) depends on the amount of mass (m) and conversely. The smaller the mass is the smaller the amount of energy.
How is Einstein's famous equation E equals mc?
E=MC2 means Energy equals Mass times the speed of light squared.
The equation E equals mc2 stands for?
E stands for "ENERGY" M = "MASS" C = "SPEED OF LIGHT"
