| Mass of Uranium |
Ccl471 |
04/25/05 |
I read on an msn.com feature article about Einstein's theories that the total energy of an object is equivalent to the object's mass at rest multiplied by the square of the speed of light.
The article then says that this famous equation means that even a tiny amount of matter can be converted to a huge amount of energy.
I'm wondering: then does that mean that uranium is a heavy substance? Because the more mass a substance contains, the more energy can be created from it.
Many thanks,
C.L. |
