Can you disprove the formulae?
Sorry - but is this forum now using "for dark people" as a metaphor for bad science and ignorance. FFS I thought there were rules about racism. I have reported it to the moderators and I hope they do something about it. Matthew

Energy is communication of object with the past

I agree that photons are massless, the equation only shows the energy required to produce that photon.That equation is wrong for photons. The correct one, valid for all particles and regardless if stationary or moving (in SR) is this:E2 = (mc2)2 + (cp)2p = momentum.For light, in classical EM, E = cp. If you apply it to photons (certainly you will agree on the fact this is allowed) you find:(cp)2 = (mc2)2 + (cp)2=> 0 = (mc2)2so m = 0.

Object travels with speed of 1 m/s.Mass of the object=1kgI want to calculate energy of this object. E ≈ mv²/2 = 0,5 J

What you have written is *not* the energy E. With the term "energy" in relativity and in particle physics, we intend "total energy". What you have written is *just* kinetic energy. E = kinetic energy + mc2 (in absence of a potential or other kinds of energy).(Let's say is a language problem, as Geezer said... [])
