Bragg's Law is one of the most famous equations in science and has played a vital role in many subsequent discoveries, from the development of antibiotics to the uncovering of the double helix in DNA.

In his fourth missive, Einstein showed that energy and matter were different faces of the same thing, their relationship described by the most famous equation in all of physics: energy equals mass multiplied by the speed of light squared, E = mc2.

For instance, mix together the imaginary number i (see «The imaginary number») and e and, with a little mathematical nous, you can derive one of the most famous equations ever, Euler's identity: e...

It allows particles, such as electrons or photons of light, the equivalent of an interest - free loan: they may borrow energy from empty space and use it to make mass, according to Einstein's famous equation E = mc2.

DISCOVER asked David Bodanis — a former Oxford University lecturer, trend consultant for BMW, author of E = mc2: A Biography of the World's Most Famous Equation, and motormouth who talks at nearly the speed of light — to investigate the pace of innovation these days in America.

From then on, rather than being solely a function of the money supply it was held that the general price level was determined by the money supply multiplied by the velocity of money in accordance with the famous Equation of Exchange (M * V = P * Q) **.

(see Ex 6:3 in the KJV) And he changed energy into matter, which Albert Einstein established with his famous equation of E = mc2 or the amount of energy released when an atom is split equals the loss of its mass times the speed of light squared.

They have backed their argument by inserting Einstein's famous equation, E = mc ², plus its year of publication, 1905, into the DNA of the bacterium Bacillus subtilis.

And then, in accordance with Einstein's famous equation, E = mc2, the fireball's energy will be converted into new matter, spraying out more than 10,000 particles into the waiting arms of the detectors.

Just how much energy nuclear fission releases is described by Einstein's famous equation E = MC2, where E is energy, M is mass and C the speed of light, about 300 million metres per second.

Yet, I mused, a famous equation governing atoms could also apply to her.

Even the famous equation E = mc2 was derived not from direct measurements, but from mental imagery.

The famous equation E = mc2 came in an additional paper, a three - page note that appeared almost as an afterthought.

Much of the culminating discussion focuses on a famous equation used to assess the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe:

Physicists typically describe a particle's mass in units of energy, using Einstein's famous equation, e = mc2, which defines the equivalence of mass and energy.

Because mass and energy are equivalent, as described by Einstein's famous equation E = mc2, determining the mass of an atom indicates how strongly its nucleus is bound together.

As such, they conform to that famous equation E = mc2 (with their actual speed, some 400 times slower than the speed of light, standing in for c).

It is possible at high energies, like those generated at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland, to end up with a different number of particles than you started with, because the famous equation e = mc2 allows mass to be created from energy when the energy is extremely large.

The process that gives rise to these quasiparticles is akin to the way energy turns into short - lived «virtual» particles and back into energy again in the vacuum of space, according to Einstein's famous equation E = mc2.
