The famous equation . . . E = m c² . . . doesn't say anything about where the mass comes from.

The total conversion of 1 kg of ANY mass into energy yields

(1kg) · (c²) Joules of energy.

E = (1 kg) · (c²) = (1 kg) · (299,792,458 m/s)²

E = 8.9876 x 10¹⁶ Joules

To put this in easily understood terms, it's the amount of energy required to keep a 100-watt light bulb shining for 10,402,259,010 days.

(That's about 28.5 million years, at the current length of days and years.)

This question involves the concepts of Einstein's theory of relativity, mass, and energy.

The conversion yields energy of "9 x 10¹⁶ J".

THEORY OF RELATIVITY

One of the important consequences of Einstein's theory of relativity is the conversion of mass into energy.

E = mc²

where,

  • E = energy = ?
  • m = mass = 1 kg
  • c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

E = (1 kg)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

E = 9 x 10¹⁶ J
