Question

E=mc^2 momentum x speed of light?

Answer 1

m=mass

Answer 2

Energy = mass x speed of light^2

Momentum is denoted with a p in classical physics.

Answer 3

Energy = momentum of light x speed of light?

Answer 4

Energy is a property of the mass of an object. You know how when you burn a food you are producing heat energy? When you eat a food your body converts it to energy for you to use?

This is the equation:

Energy = Mass x Speed of light x Speed of light
Energy = Mass x Speed of light^2

Answer 5

so mass is not the mass of light?

Answer 6

Nope. Although the term mass is a little misleading, and a little ambiguous.

Answer 7

thanks

Answer 8

Quote: "Energy = momentum of light x speed of light?"
This transcribes:\[E=pc\]This is true only for particles with mass=0.
The general relation for any particle goes:\[E=\sqrt{p ^{2}c ^{2}+m ^{2}c ^{4}}\]

Answer 9

mc would be momentum of particle if the velocity of particle would be equal to speed of light.. why would you need to project the body at light's speed to find its equivalent energy?? so, it's non sense to think that mc is momentum.. Even for a particle of mass m at rest, the energy is given by mc^2.. we are not concerned with whether the body even has a momentum or not..

Answer 10

tyvm

Answer 11

vincent, you look like my teacher lol

Answer 12

how about this: can mass exist in 2d?

Answer 13

can you exist in 2d??

Answer 14

i do exist in 2d

Answer 15

so, you have length and breadth and no height.. hmmm... so you are like a sketch on a paper..

Answer 16

many 2d me's exist

Answer 17

in a 3d world

Answer 18

In these equations
c=speed of light in a vacuum
which is constant
