Title:
|
|
Finding the energy equivalence of mass and mass equivalence of energy
|
|
by Einstein's equation.
|
|
|
|
Description:
|
|
Einstein's mass-energy equivalence is a pivotal concept in theoretical physics.
|
|
It asserts that energy (E) and mass (m) are directly related by the speed of
|
|
light in vacuum (c) squared, as described in the equation E = mc². This means that
|
|
mass and energy are interchangeable; a mass increase corresponds to an energy increase,
|
|
and vice versa. This principle has profound implications in nuclear reactions,
|
|
explaining the release of immense energy from minuscule changes in atomic nuclei.
|
|
|
|
Equations:
|
|
E = mc² and m = E/c², where m is mass, E is Energy, c is speed of light in vacuum.
