Yes but how do you derive those equations?

I am writing an essay on special relativity, but I am stuck on how to prove that mass increases with speed, e=mc squared and I do not know how to show how you add velocities at speeds approaching the speed of light. I would be very grateful for an explanation of these things.

Does anyone know any ways af drastically cutting down the amount of sleep one needs?

What I meant was that the maximum temp. that could be acheived is when the mean velocity of the particles is c - 0.1 as that is as fast as the particles could move without actually acheiving c.

What gives light its speed? And why does it travel at c, not faster or slower?

Can any life survive without water? If not, why?

Surely the theoretical maximum temp. is the speed of light - 0.1 reccuring?

Why do men have nipples?

If light has a mass, how can it travel at the speed of light? And if it doesn't, why is it affected by gravity (e.g. black holes)?
