Tell More interesting on e=mc2?

More people know this famous equation of Einstein's than any other in human history. This famous equation is even well known to children and the mass media. But Einstein did not receive a Nobel Proze for this incredible discovery of the energy-mass equivalence principle.\n\nThe most interesting thing is that not only did Einstein did not get the Nobel prize for e=mc2, he did not get it for his Theory of Special Relativity, the discovery that time is relative and depends on the motion of your reference frame. And no, he did not receive the Nobel prize for his Theory of General Relativity either, where he discovered that space and time forms a continuum onto which matter and energy can interact and vice versa.\n\nNo, no, no. None of these great scientific discoveries of the 20th century were considered Nobel prize worthy. Instead they gave Einstein the Nobel prize for the dicovery of the "Photo-electric Effect".\n\nThis must have been the greatest insult to Einstein, because the "photo-electric effect" is the precursor to Quantum Mechanics. As a matter of fact, the term "quanta" was first coined by Einstein in his paper on the photo-electric effect.\n\nThe only problem is that Einstein hated Quantum Mechanics, and yet he is awarded a Nobel Prize to commemorate him as one of the fathers of QM. Einstein literally spent the majority of his professional career trying to disapprove Quantum Mechanics. His head-to-head arguments with Neil Bohr about the correctness of QM was infamous!\n\nIt is very sad indeed, because it turns out that QM is one of the pillar of scientific discovery of the 20th century as well. And indeed, Einstein's career waned and died as he refused to acknowledge the validity of QM. Even on his death bed, Einstein struggled to develop a unified theory that can explains all physical phenonmenon without the use of Quantum Mechanics. Of course, he was doom to fail from the beginnning because QM is a fundamental fact of nature.\n\nSo why did Einstein hate QM so much? Mainly because Einstein did not believe that "God plays with dice". One of the basic tennents of QM is that the bevahiors of the subatomic world is based on probabilities, where nothing is deterministic. And this is so contrary to Einstein's worldview about the simplicity and beauty of the natural order that he simply did not accept it. This ultimately led to his downfall as Einstein was ignored and alienated by the scientific community toward the end of his life and career.

First of all, since E = mc^2, you cannot have two massive, energyless bodies.  Secondly, by definition, they have a potential energy of \n.. R\n ∫(-GM1M2/R^2)dR, or GM1M2/R\n. 0\nwith respect to each other, so, again, they cannot be energyless.

E is for Engergy\nM is for mass\nC is the speed of light in a vacuum\n2 means "squared" or multiplied by itself

It is much easier to just give you a link instead of explaining it:\n\nhttp://www.shef.ac.uk/physics/teaching/phy107/solvegray.html

Yeah, it's E=mc^2 and it relates energy and mass.  E is energy, m is mass, c is the speed of light (celeritas).  The equation could come useful in physics, like atomic physics.\n\nWhat did you wanted to know?

About as much as who is president matters. That is to say, not much at all, directly, but quite a bit indirectly. Without E=MC^2 there could be no nuclear bombs. And depending on who is president, we may or may not go to war and possibly use those nuclear bombs. (That is just an example that is easy to understand and not a political statement.)

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, i.e. the energy per unit mass. In unit specific terms, E (Joules) = M (kilograms) · (299792458 m/s) 2.

E = mc2 is one of the most famous equations, even to non-physicists, and which states a relationship between energy (E), in whatever form, and mass (m). In this formula, c², the square of the speed of light in a vacuum, is the conversion factor required to formally convert from units of mass to units of energy, i.e. the energy per unit mass. In unit specific terms, E (joules) = M (kilograms) multiplied by (299792458 m/s)2.

Although I love Einstein, E-mc2 is only a THEORY.  I think you need to look back to the creationism THEORIES of the Big Bang, Quantum theory, Universal theory, String theory.  Engery is neither created or destroyed.  We get engery to use because of lost energy in other reactions.  Combustion has a lot of energy in the form of heat and light. etc....

The theoretical physics equation E = mc2 states a relationship between energy (E) and mass (m) first formulated by Albert Einstein in his 1905 paper "Ist die Trägheit eines Körpers von seinem Energieinhalt abhängig?" ("Does the Inertia of a Body Depend Upon Its Energy Content?", published in Annalen der Physik on September 27), one of the articles now known as his Annus Mirabilis Papers.

E = mc^2 = 1kg * (3*10^8)^2 = 9^10^16 Joules

I would have to say no. E=mc^2 is a version of einstein's relativity theory. It means that Energy is equal to Mass times the speed of light squared, and that there is an equivalence betwen mass and energy ( it means that no object with mass can go faster than the speed of light). But it has nothing to do with everything being made of nothing in my opinion. (see http://www.drphysics.com/syllabus/energy/energy.html)

They mutually anihilate into energy (generally in the form of gamma-rays).  The energy they produce is the based on the sum of thier masses, and Einstein's famous E=mc^2 equation.

E = m x c^2,\nso \n\nmass = Energy / c^2 (speed of light squared)
