How does $E=mc^2$ put an upper limit to velocity of a body?
How does $E=mc^2$ put a upper limit to velocity of a body? I have read some articles on speed of light and they just tell me that it is the maximum velocity that can be acquired by any particle. How ...

Which units has the relation $E=mc^2$?
Fast everyone knows the relation $E = mc^2$ but I still ask me, which units the relation has.
$c$ is the velocity of light. It means, a constant, isn't it? We therefore just have the relation $E = ...

Can you create mass with $E=mc^2$?
If you use the equation $E=mc^2$ could you make matter by dividing the $c^2$? I'm sorry if this is a really stupid sounding question or if it shouldn't be asked here.

What can $E=mc^2$ do?
In the famous equation $E=mc^2$, the variables stand for:
$E$ is energy, $m$ is mass, and $c$ is the speed of light (in vacuum).
And I understand the equation fairly but limited in knowing in ...

Is there any law that prevents an object with mass to become massless?
I got into a discussion with my physics teacher about the speed of light and I asked
What if an object with mass was to lose mass as it gained speed-- would that allow for an object to eventually ...
