Abstract
This paper identifies the fundamental conceptual flaw that has persisted for the past 100 years. The flaw is the equivalence of a "mass" and "energy", and the description of such equivalence by the relationship E = mc2. In this paper, we show an exact proof for E = mc2 starting from classical Mechanics. This is done from the point of view of one inertial frame, not two, and without invoking the theory of electromagnetism [1], as well as without invoking SRT [2]. The existence of an invariant 3d- force is important to get the relativistic mechanics from the relationship E = mc2.
