I've given up trying to understand physics. I feel they make that shit up as they go along.
>So mass is just condensed energy, right?
>Yes, they are related by E=MC^2.
>And photons have energy?
>Of course. We can work out that energy from their wavelength.
>So we can stick that energy into the equation, and recover their mass?
>NO YOU DUMBSHIT. THAT'S RELATIVISTIC MASS. NO ONE USES IT ANYWAY. IT SHOULDN'T BE CALLED MASS AT ALL.
Fix your fucking field.
Feels lonely to always be the most intelligent person in every thread i grace with my presence. I'm not amused by you attempt at humor, brainlet.

I had a giggle there.
now get the fuck off my board faggot.
Yes it does. Although the photon has zero rest mass, it does have energy. From the relativistic relationships among Energy, Mass, and Momentum, E2 = (Moc2)2 + (pc)2, if the rest mass is zero then the momentum is give by p = E/c. Consider a photon bouncing directly back from a small mirror. It is observed by direct experimental measurement that if a laser beam is reflected from a mirror, the mirror will recoil with the same amount of momentum that the photon had (minus a tiny amount do the slight wavelength shift in the recoiling photon).

Show us mathematically how 0 x c = 0c>0
... its not 0...
light has energy, and thus behaves like anything with energy would... it just doesnt jave energy in the form of mass like normal matter does.
how about you fucking read my post before you make yourself look like a baboon? What the fuck do you not understand? You are litterally arguing with physics.
>it just doesnt jave energy in the form of mass like normal matter does.
What is the difference between the having mass in the conventional and non-conventional way? Because the obvious answer to your question, as given in many intro physics books, is that there isnt...
>... its not 0...
what is it then nigga.
Momentum isn't just mv in relativity.
