What does M Stand for E equals mc 2?
Mass.
What does the E equals MC squared mean?
Einstein figured out this formula: Energy equal mass * 89,875,517,800,000,000 mtr²/sec²
What is Einstein's equation that us used to calculate the amount of energy produced from a given amount of mass?
E = mc^2
If E equals MC squared what does M equals?
M = mass
What does E equals mc squared mean?
The simplest answer is: E is energy, m is mass, and c is the speed of light in a vacuum. But what does this really mean? Well, to be correct, Einstein's full equation is: E^2 = (mc^2)^2 + (pc)^2, where p stands for momentum. This equation applies to much more than the colloquial E = mc^2. It applies to moving objects, explains why mass drops when two atoms join together, and many other relativistic observations. Also, a very important point is that, because both sides of the equation are squared, solving for E (energy) yields to answers, a positive one and a negative one. This realization is what led to the hypothesis and eventually the discovery of anti-matter, which posses negative energy and/or mass.
