What does C stand for in E=MC square?

Question

what does the C stand for in E=MC square

Answer 1

Hi,

I found this explanation on Google.

The energy(e) of a mass to energy conversion equals the mass(m) that was converted multiplied by the speed of light(c) squared.

If we choose mass in kilograms and the speed of light in meters per second, then the answer will be in Joules.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

The speed of light - ahhhh so fast (theoretical speed limit an object with mass can travel).

Answer 3

Carey ;]

Answer 4

speed of light in a vacuum

Answer 5

Cheddar.

Answer 6

Energy= (mass)(speed of light square)

Answer 7

C means the speed of light

Answer 8

Speed of light

Answer 9

It stands for, "Oh man, half a dozen people are so much faster than i am - why do i even bother answering?"

C is quite obviously mnemonic for 'The speed of light'.

See?

OK, the C is silent, like the "P" in "swimming".

Answer 10

it stands for EMANCIPATION=MARIAH CAREY squared(meaning twice as good) if your talking about mariah careys album

Answer 11

E = Total Energy

M = Mass

C = Speed of light (186,282 miles per hour)

Answer 12

you mean e equals mc squared. c stands for constant, and the constant is the speed of light.

Answer 13

C=3.00 x 10^8 meters per second

but the C should be squared in that equation

Answer 14

constant

Answer 15

'C' in this formula stands for the value of the speed of light.

C = 3 * 10^8

in other words:

C = 300, 000,000

In the above formula this value is squared.
