E=mc^2 is a version of Einstein's famous Relativity equation. Specifically, it means that Energy is equal to Mass times the speed of light squared. In essence, it states that there is an equivalence between mass and energy. This simple statement has many profound implications... such as no object with mass can ever go faster than the speed of light!\n\nThe Energy:\nEnergy is measured in joules (J). How much energy is one joule? Not very much really. If you pick up a large apple and raise it above your head you will have used around one joule of energy in the process. On the other hand we use up huge amounts of energy every time we switch on a light. A 100 watt light bulb uses 100 joules of energy every second, i.e. one watt is one joule per second.\n\nThe Mass :\nMass is a measure of a body�s resistance to acceleration. The greater the mass the greater the resistance to acceleration, as anyone who has ever tried to push a heavy object knows. For our purposes here, we can also think of mass as the amount of matter in an object. Mass is measured in kilograms (kg), 1 kg is about the same as 2.2 pounds. Note that we haven�t said what the mass is composed of. In fact it could be anything. It doesn�t matter if we use iron, plastic, wood, rock or gravy. The equation tells us that whatever the mass is it can be turned into energy (whether it is practical to actually do so is another matter and will be dealt with in later pages in this series).\n\nThe speed of light:\nThe speed of light is close to 186,300 miles per second (300,000 km per second). In order to make the equation "work" we need to convert these numbers into units that are more suited to our purposes. In physics, speeds are measured in metres per second. This is usually abbreviated to ms-1; that is "metres times seconds to the minus one". Don�t worry if you don�t understand this notation. We could equally write m/s but using ms-1 makes the mathematics easier in the long run. Likewise, we could either say that the speed of light is 300,000,000 metres per second, or, as is more usual, express the same figure in scientific notation: 3 � 10^8 ms-1.\n I think the mass is dont increase the enrgy is relative with light speed and the mass is constant\nE=constant*C^2\n\nFor a long time the concept of "mass" had been like the concept of energy before the 19th century. There were a lot of different material substances around, but it was not clear how they related to each other, if at all.\n\nAntoine-Laurent Lavoisier, as much as anyone else, first showed that all the seemingly diverse bits of tree and rock and iron on Earth�all the "mass" there is�really were parts of a single connected whole. Through decades of meticulous experiments, aided by his able wife Marie Anne, Lavoisier proved that the substances that fill our universe can be burned, squeezed, shredded, or hammered to bits, but they won't disappear. The different sorts floating around just combine or recombine. The total amount of mass, however, remains the same. This principle�the law of conservation of mass�was one of the great scientific achievements of the 1700s.

The theoretical physics equation E = mc2 states a relationship between energy (E), in whatever form, and mass (m). In this formula, c², the square of the speed of light in vacuum, is the conversion factor required to formally convert from units of mass to units of energy. In unit specific terms, E (Joules) = M (kilograms) · (299792458 m/s) 2.\n\nMeanings of the formula\nThis formula, which was discovered by Albert Einstein, proposes that when a body has a mass (measured at rest), it has a certain (a very large) amount of energy associated with this mass. This is opposed to the Newtonian mechanics, in which a massive body at rest has no kinetic energy, and may or may not have other (relatively small) amounts of internal stored energy (such as chemical or thermal energy), in addition to any potential energy it may have from its position in a field of force. That is why a body's mass, in Einstein's theory, is often called the rest energy of the body. The E of the formula can be seen as the total energy of the body, which is proportional to the mass when the body is at rest.\n\nConversely, a single photon travelling in empty space cannot be considered to have an effective mass, m, according to the above equation. The reason is that such a photon cannot be measured in any way to be at "rest" and the formula above applies only to single particles when they are at rest. Photons are generally considered to be "massless," (i.e., they have no rest mass or invariant mass) even though they have varying amounts of energy.\n\nThis formula also gives the quantitative relation of the quantity of mass lost from a resting body or an initially resting system, when energy is removed from it, such as in a chemical or a nuclear reaction where heat and light are removed. Then this E could be seen as the energy released or removed, correponding with a certain amount of mass m which is lost, and which corresponds with the removed heat or light. In those cases, the energy released and removed is equal in quantity to the mass lost, times the speed of light squared. Similarly, when energy of any kind is added to a resting body, the increase in the resting mass of the body will be the energy added, divided by the speed of light squared

"It followed from the special theory of relativity that mass and energy are both but different manifestations of the same thing -- a somewhat unfamiliar conception for the average mind. Furthermore, the equation E is equal to m c-squared, in which energy is put equal to mass, multiplied by the square of the velocity of light, showed that very small amounts of mass may be converted into a very large amount of energy and vice versa. The mass and energy were in fact equivalent, according to the formula mentioned above. This was demonstrated by Cockcroft and Walton in 1932, experimentally."

hello.obviously the answer from any keyboard would be albert einstein.we hav many instances to name as why he is prodigious in math and physical calclations...

Doesn't that have something to do with Einstein's e=mc^2?  It sure looks like it.  The rest of seems to be an example of an explanation of the inefficiency of practical mass to energy conversions.  I could be wrong.\n\nOh, by the way:  what are you asking?

Isaac Newtwon laid down the ground work for modern day physics.  Then Einstein came along and published the most recent great discovery in physics, the theory of relativity.  The problem is, these two contradict each other.  Steven Hawkings and others have since been working with string theory, which would explain these contradictions.

Mach deduced the basic math framework needed to operate with tensor transformations; he did that work for his own investigations (particularly propagation of waves), but it was used by Einstein for his own work. Probably if Mach had looked at other lines of thought he'd arrived at special relativity. AS it was, he was a micron from it.

He was on the committe that investigated the Challenger explosion.\n\nHe developed the sum over histories method to explain the motion of an electron as it exhibited wave characteristics through a double slit.\n\nHe developed a unique geometric proof that orbiting paths are elliptical.\n\nThere are a few for you off the top of my head.
