One consequence of Einstein's theory of special relativity is that mass is a form of energy. This mass-energy relationship is perhaps the most famous of all physics equations:
E=mc2,
where m is mass, c is the speed of the light, and E is the energy. In SI units, the units of speed are m/s. For the preceding equation to have consistent units (the same units on both sides of the equation), the units of E must be which of the following?

Answer :

MysteryMarsh
Joule is the si unit for energy

Answer:

Unit of energy is kg-m/s or Joules.

Explanation:

The mass- energy relationship in physics is given by :

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

Where

m is the mass of the object

c is the speed of light

The SI unit of m is kilogram while the SI unit of c is as same as speed of light i.e. m/s. So, the unit of energy is kg-m/s. It is also equivalent to Joules.

So, the SI unit of energy is kg-m/s or Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
