E=mc²

E - Energy
m - mass
c - ?????
² - squared

Why is this so god damn hard to find on Google as well? ):

>implying light has speed

c depends on your velocity in the universe, and is given by the formula

c=root(E/m)

>> No.1906900

>>1906895
"As for c, that is the speed of light in vacuum, and if you ask why c, the answer is that it is the initial letter of celeritas, the Latin word meaning speed."

don't ask me. why is h planck's contant? why is π the ratio of a circle's radius to circumference? It doesn't ahve to make sense

Einstein didn't come up with the symbol c.

He actually used V as a symbol for it, but was forced to switch when c was the generally accepted symbol for it.

I'm American, therefore not a dumbfuck or a nationalist, we're too good to be either. But we should trust or use anyone that isn't from this country, we should be the ones that are the forefront of this planet, and nobody else.

I hope you're a troll. I'd have a hard time believing americans can be this dumb (I'm an american, unfortunately)

its negligible. you can cross it out.

because energy is in the universe, m stands for all the mass in the universe

If you "toss out" the m, E is always just c^2. What would be the point of having the equation is the answer is always the same? The m stands for invariant mass. E is always different. C is the only constant.

So you are a newfag on /sci/.
Watch this video to see where the "you can cross out mass" joke comes from:

Not saying it's funny, just so you know where this shit comes from. Hopefully you will notice somebody's joking/trolling when he tells you to cross out mass in the future.

> E=mc²
> E - Energy

c² = a²+b²

duh. gb2 grade-school geometry.
