TL;DR
This paper explores the relationship between matter and energy by estimating the energy required to lift large objects like mountains using Einstein's and Newton's laws.
Contribution
It presents a novel estimation connecting matter-energy conversion with gravitational potential energy for large-scale objects.
Findings
A small amount of matter can produce enough energy to lift Mount Everest.
The energy-matter relationship is quantifiable using classical and relativistic physics.
The approach bridges theoretical physics with practical estimations of energy requirements.
Abstract
Our work is an approach between matter and energy. Using the famous equation E = mc^2, Einstein and the Law of Universal Gravitation of Newton, we estimate that a small amount matter converted into energy is needed to lift, using the gravitational potential energy equation on the surface, a mountain of solid iron or even Mount Everest.
