| − | According to the [[Theory of Relativity]] the formula of energy is [[E=mc2]]. However this formula is controversial.
| + | There are a number of formulas in physics that relate to energy, such as "E=(1/2)mv²", "E=Fd", "E=QV" (charge times voltage), "E=CV²", "E=LI²", and the very famous but not often used in ordinary physics "[[E=mc²]]". |
