What are those terms in the denominator?

That is the Lorentz factor, a key part of special relativity. E=mc^2 holds true for a stationary object, but when moving at a velocity (v), it is only an approximation. At very low velocities, this effect is negligible (the denominator is ~1). Approaching c, it is more obvious.

How is that an E
-
According to English language... E = mc^2 i.e. u can alse write your name as Tmc^2nlmc^2y...

If any of you guys are wondering how that root below the mc² went v is zero at rest.

Henri Poincaré wrote it for the first time.

Is this just a comment? There‘s no contradiction. The post doesn‘t claim that Einstein was the first.

I feel like gamma is factored in pretty much every property of matter in special Relativity

Whoa... special and general relativity at the same time? I always assumed one greatly preceded the other...

General relativity needs the field equations, though? The version stated here isn’t part of GR.
