The discussion revolves around the application of the equation E=mc² in the context of calculating radiation from a nuclear blast. The original poster seeks to understand how this equation can be utilized to determine aspects related to radiation and its effects following a nuclear explosion.
The conversation is ongoing, with participants providing clarifications and suggesting that additional resources, such as library materials, may contain relevant information. There is no explicit consensus on the application of E=mc² for the original poster's query.
Participants note that the original inquiry may be related to a school presentation, which introduces constraints regarding the depth of information and the need for accessible explanations.

Actually what they wanted was about fallout radii, a school presentation, apparently.
They needed to know the types of radiation, the longevity of the radio activity, (as per emitter/emmissions) and the need to pay attention to the direction of the winds
Humm, library? Humm, isn't that a lot like the internet? a big library with actual human intern'actions...Originally posted by NateTG
Hit the library. There's published material for all of this information.
