Answer:

Speed of light

Explanation:

The famous Einstein's equation is:

[tex]E=mc^2[/tex]

where

E is the energy

m is the mass

[tex]c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s[/tex] is the speed of light

In this equation, Einstein summarized the following fact: mass can be converted into energy, and the amount of energy released in such a process is given by the equation.

An example of application of this equation is the nuclear fusion process. In a nuclear fusion, two lighter nuclei combine into a heavier nucleus. However, the mass of the heavier nucleus is slightly less than the sum of the masses of the two original nuclei: some of the mass of the original nuclei has been converted into energy, accorging to the previous equation.
