    Undergrad What is Einstein's equation used for?

    Thank you for your response. Obviously it can be used to calculate the energy for a change of mass taking into account momentum, but I was hoping to find applications like in nuclear fusion where the equation can be demonstrated if that makes sense.

    Undergrad What is Einstein's equation used for?

    I've been doing some research into Einstein's equation E2=(mc2)2 +(pc)2 but apart from in nuclear reactions, where you can use the simpler E=mc2 as momentum=0, I have been unable to find any applications. Thank you in advance
