given that E=mc^2, find c if m=0.05 and E=4.5*10^15
(A) 1.5*10^7
(B) 3*10^8
(C) 1.0*10^15
(D) 2*10^16
or none of the above

Question

anonymous · Answer

b

anonymous · Answer

i thought it was none of these can ou tell me how you got b so i know how to work it out?

anonymous · Answer

divide by m on both sides, u get E/m = c^2
E/m is 9 x 10^16
so c is sqrt{9 x 10^16}
c=3 x 10^8

anonymous · Answer

thanks so much

anonymous · Answer

and anyway this c in this particular eqn is a universal constant

anonymous · Answer

what is a universal constant

anonymous · Answer

i mean this is one of the most famous equations of the world, and wherever u c dis eqn, d value of c is always the same

anonymous · Answer

thanks so much you have been a great help
