Question

What is the significance of the discovery E = mc2?

Answer 1

It is the equation that helped prove that matter and energy are not separate but different forms of the same thing.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Einstein mass-energy equivalence equation is given by :

`E=mc^2`

Where

E is the energy

m is the mass

c is the speed of light

Einstein give this equation that shows that mass and energy are interchangeable. Also, it shows that energy is equal to the product of mass and square of velocity of light. It can be understand in case of atom bomb. A very small amount of mass can produce a large amount of energy.
