Undergrad Energy apparently equals mass times the speed of light squared
I have read through ths post and am still asking the question I didnt see or understand anything that even seemed to remotely address my question. No mass being measured ever travels at the speed of light so the relationship of C to kinetic energy in any mass isn't relavent to C but instead to...- dailyplanit

That's the easy part. And I assume is a light hearted attempt at humour ha ha :) In fact that is exactly my point "units or numbers ...completely arbitrary and has no real bearing on the physical reality...!" in your words So change height into a number then we have a different numbetr...- dailyplanit

Sorry edited your words to what I think you might have meant... But if you get it so often then that makes it a frequent question. A questions validity isn't based on the persons ability to see the answer themselves otherwise they would not ask the question would they? Just because someone...- dailyplanit

If light travels as far as it does in a given time, how do you decide how to put a number on that speed? In 1 second it travels 1 light second. Its speed is measured as... miles per hour or kilometers per hour or seconds per inch or cubits per century ALL different numbers all are very much THE...- dailyplanit
