E=MC2



e=mc2



Albert Einstein developed a theory about the relationship of mass and energy.

The formula, E=mc2, is probably the most famous one known from Einstein's special theory of relativity.

  • The formula says energy E equals mass m times the speed of light c squared.

In essence, it means mass is just one form of energy.

Since the speed of light squared is an enormous number = 186,000 miles per second
a small amount of mass can be converted to a phenomenal amount of energy.

Or

If there's a lot of energy available, some energy can be converted to mass and a new particle can be created.
