  1. rest energy

    Rest energy refers to the intrinsic energy of an object or particle at rest, as articulated by Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. It is equivalent to the mass of the object or particle multiplied by the speed of light squared (E=mc^2), which shows that mass and energy are interchangeable. In essence, even an object at rest possesses energy due to its mass.
