Relativistic angular momentum can be compactly abbreviated in tensor index notation where the indices "i" and "j" take the values 1, 2, 3. On the other hand, the components can be systematically displayed fully in a 3 × 3 antisymmetric matrix This quantity is additive, and for an isolated system, the total angular momentum of a system is conserved. In classical mechanics, the three-dimensional quantity for a particle of mass "m" moving with velocity u has the dimensions of "mass moment" – length multiplied by mass. It is related to the boost (relative velocity) of the centre of mass (COM) of the particle
Mass–energy equivalence Mass–energy equivalence In physics, mass–energy equivalence states that anything having mass has an equivalent amount of energy and vice versa, with these fundamental quantities directly relating to one another by Albert Einstein's famous formula: formula_1 This formula states that the equivalent energy () can be calculated as the mass () multiplied by the speed of light ( = about m/s) squared. Similarly, anything having energy exhibits a corresponding mass given by its energy divided by the speed of light squared . Because the speed of light is a very large number in everyday units, the formula implies that even an
