Rest Energy
Rest energy, abbreviated as \(m_0\), of a particle is the mass of a partical that is measured at rest with respect to the observer.
Rest Energy formula |

|
\(\large{ E_0 = m_0 \; c^2 }\) (Rest Energy) \(\large{ m_0 = \frac{ E_0 }{ c^2 } }\) \(\large{ c = \sqrt{ \frac{ E_0 }{ m_0 } } }\) |

| \(\large{ m_0 }\) = rest mass | \(\large{lbm}\) | \(\large{kg}\) |
| \(\large{ c }\) = speed of light | \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m}{s}}\) |
