No, it means E equals m c squared. To square, in mathematics means that something is multiplied by itself. So, E equals m c squared means that energy (E) equals mass (m) times [the speed of light times the speed of light] (c squared).

@oristarA,

As Setanta says, squared, Ori. Again, it's the passive voice,

c is squared by whoever performs this calculation.

@oristarA,

E=MC2 is read as Ee equals em see squared.
Which means E equals mass times the speed of light squared. Just thought I'd let you know.

In other words, you responded without reading the thread--otherwise you'd have known that others had let him know.

@Setanta,

Yeah, I do that often. My bad, it seems I have been getting on peoples nerves lately without trying to, oops. :\

Don't worry about it . . . you didn't get on my nerves. But, in a short thread, not having read it is kind of lazy.

@Setanta,

I wasn't trying to be lazy, I have a bed time time, and I clicked this link like a minute before it. My mom would have had my head if I was late. I promise you I normally read the thread before I answer. Being my age is a hard job. xD
