Do you know what should I read to understand why everything wants to have the smallest energy and why every object which is approaching light speed puts on mass?
The relationship between mass and energy is described by Einstein's famous equation, E=mc². This equation shows that mass and energy are interchangeable and that a small amount of mass can produce a large amount of energy.
Mass affects energy in several ways. First, the more massive an object is, the more potential energy it has. Second, mass is required for energy to be converted from one form to another. Finally, the amount of energy an object has can be used to determine its mass.
Yes, according to Einstein's equation, mass can be converted into energy and vice versa. This process is known as mass-energy equivalence and has been proven through experiments such as nuclear reactions and particle accelerators.
Mass and energy are two different forms of the same physical quantity. Mass is a measure of an object's inertia, while energy is a measure of its ability to do work. Mass is measured in kilograms (kg), while energy is measured in joules (J).
The principles of mass-energy equivalence have been applied in various technologies, including nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons. It has also been used in medical imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) scans, which use the conversion of mass into energy to produce images of the body's internal structures.
