Radium
That mass and energy are interchangeable substances. Energy = mass * speed of light squared Mass = energy/speed of light squared A direct mathematical relationship with the speed of light as a constant.
Kinetic and potential energy are interchangeable and both can be converted into work.
Einstein said that energy is equal to mass times the speed of light squared.
Einstein did not discover matter and energy. Matter and energy have been around since the beginning of time.

Polonium had no influence on Einstein determining that mass and energy were interchangeable.

Einstein 'discovered' that matter and energy are interchangeable and that is the equation which gives the amounts of each, matter and energy, involved in this change.
E=mc^2 states that mass and energy are interchangeable, and that a little bit of mass creates a lot of energy.

In realistic mechanics, as proved by Albert Einstein's equation-E=mc^2, yes matter and energy are interchangeable. This is Theoretically thinking. In Newtonian mechanics, there is a set amount of energy in the universe and matter is only affected by it as proved by the equation-E=1/2mv^2. This applies to the real world. Overall, it all depends on which type of mechanics you are dealing with. The two are completely different and cannot be related so do not try to.
Hydrogen .
Einstein's famous equation, E=mc2, basically means that energy and mass are interchangeable - that under the right conditions, mass can turn into pure energy, and energy can turn into mass. So, in essence, it can be said that matter can turn into pure energy if it is travelling at the speed of light.
Einstein said that energy is equal to mass times the speed of light squared.
