Best Answer

To get an understanding of basic physics (or classical physics), it is best to consider matter and energy as different things. However, and according to the Special Theory of Relativity, actually any energy has a related mass, and mass can be thought of as a special type of energy; the conversion factor is given by the formula e = mc2, where "c" is the speed of light. In the SI, that means that one kilogram of mass corresponds to an energy of 9 x 1016 joules.

What is energy matter in science terms?

Energy and matter are the complete contents of our Universe. Matter is any particles that have a rest mass. Energy includes matter, as rest mass is just a particular type of energy. Energy is the potential to do work.
