What units did Einstein use for c in his emc2 equation miles per hour gives a different result to meters per second?

In physics, usually we measure distances in meters. Also in physics, acceleration is usually assumed to be in meters per second.
And so, Einstein used meters per second squared to describe the speed of light in the famous equation. E=MC^2 (M is mass in kilograms, C is speed of light in meters per second, and E is the amount of energy in Joules).
PS. The word Watt stands for Joules per second. So a 100 watt light bulb uses 100 joules of energy every second.

When did Albert Einstein say Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result?
Never
What is the result of solving an equation?
It is the solution of the equation
What is the result of this equation 336000m - 20000004200 plus m6?
There is no result because there is no equation, only an expression.
What makes a valid physical equation true?
Most equations in physics are never true. All that can be done is to find more an more evidence in support of the equation. However, it is always possible that there is an as-yet-unknown factor which changes all the equations. this is what happened to Newtonian physics as a result of Einstein's work.
What was a result of Albert Einstein's studies on fusion?
The Atom bomb.
Did Einstein say insanity is doing things the same way but expecting a different result?
Rita Mae Brown wrote that phrase in her book "Sudden Death" in 1983. Most people attribute that quote to Albert Einstein, but he actually did not say that.
Why do you clear fractions in a linear equation?
Multiply every term in the equation by a common denominator of all the fractions. The least common denominator (if different) will result in smaller numbers that you then have to work with but it is not essential that you use it.
What is the result of information put into an equation?
The answer
What is the result of converting 1.36 kilometers into meters?
1360 meters
How many steps is 1 kilometer?
About 1500. Of course, people have steps of different lengths. Take a few of your own steps, measure how long it is, convert it to meters, then divide 1000 meters by your result.
