Mass Energy Equivalence

Title:
Finding the energy equivalence of mass and mass equivalence of energy
by Einstein's equation.

Description:
Einstein's mass-energy equivalence is a pivotal concept in theoretical physics.
It asserts that energy (E) and mass (m) are directly related by the speed of
light in vacuum (c) squared, as described in the equation E = mc². This means that
mass and energy are interchangeable; a mass increase corresponds to an energy increase,
and vice versa. This principle has profound implications in nuclear reactions,
explaining the release of immense energy from minuscule changes in atomic nuclei.

Equations:
E = mc² and m = E/c², where m is mass, E is Energy, c is speed of light in vacuum.
