TL;DR Summary
questions about energy, not as to what is energy but how exactly does it interacts.
We know that energy can be converted from one for to another , but how does it do that?
How exactly does energy interacts with the quantum particles or with strings for that matter?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Energy is not something that interacts with anything. Energy is a property that things that interact, like quantum fields, have. (More precisely, in QM it's an observable.)

If energy is a property, then what actually posses this property?
 
The universe as we describe it. Did you read the Feynman lecture?

I haven't read it, can you share please.
 
I have a question.
The answer is here. <link provided>
I still have a question.
Did you read the answer?
No.

This doesn't seem to me like a winning strategy. If it were me, I'd read the answer posted in the link in Post 3.

No, click on the link and have a look for yourself. You need to show some effort in trying to answer your own questions. Click the link below:

@prax, you might want to give this Feynman lecture a try: https://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/I_04.html

ok! so does it implies that energy is a constant quantity and we really aren't aware of its true nature rather we just see things in action , and then can it imply that mass energy is just a constant value as matter cannot originate from nothingness ?
