Energy has absolutely no volume or mass. However, energy and matter can be interchanged, and highly energetic particles behave as if they have more mass. When antimatter and matter collide, they annihilate, releasing their equivalent in energy.

The "particles" of which energy can be said to be composed are "photons" which are discreet, massless packets of energy. The so-called "solar wind" is not energy, but consists of high-energy particles emitted by the Sun along with its radiated energy.

No. Light is a form of energy. Matter has mass. Light has no mass.

They are all made of matter; just in different states.


What existed before antimatter?

the question makes no sense, anti matter is produced when energy is converted into matter. no matter what, when energy converts into matter both matter and anti matter is created, and they can unite once more to be converted back into energy, basicly, ther is the same amount of anti matter particles as there are normal matter particles, but that's a diffrent story


Why was Emc2 formed?

it is made by Albert Einstein to explain that matter and energy are two different form of the same thing. Matter can turn to energy and energy can turn to matter


What are the three parts of the kinetic theory of matter?

- All matter in composed of atoms and molecules (tiny particles) - The tiny particles are always in motion - Energy affects this motion -The particles interact -There is much space between these particles


How does radiation transfers heat energy?

Radiation and heat energy are manifestations of the same thing. Heat is a measure of kinetic energy. Radiation is the emanation of particles or energy that can interact with matter and, as such, change its kinetic energy and, thus, its heat.


How are matter and energy the same?

Energy and matter(mass) are not the same! Energy = mass x c^2 !


What is the relationship between the kinetic energy and the physical state of the substance they compose?

Kinetic energy is energy of matter. The kinetic is doing work. Tempature is measured of average energy of motion, particles of matter. The physical is pretty much doing the same thing as the kinetic. They both are doing work.


Which is true about particles that make up solid matter?

The same particles of matter that make up a solid are also the same particles of matter that make up a gas or a liquid. Basically matter consists of atoms. At the simplest level, the particles of atoms are electrons, protons and neutrons.


The average kinetic energy of a substances is its what?

Average KE is proportional to the temperature of the particles measured in Kelvin.Energy is measured in Joules and temperature is measured in Kelvin or Celsius. Do not think that they are the same thing.KE = 1/2mv2 for macroscopic objects but the equation for working out the KE of particles is quite complicated.


What 3 things describe matter?

The three rules of matter are - 1. The particles of matter have space between them known as intermolecular spaces 2. The particles of matter attract to each other which are known as the forces of intermolecular attraction . The forces that attract to same particles are known as cohesive forces and the forces which attract to different types of matter are called adhesive forces 3.The particles of matter are made up of small small particles
