Mass is a fundamental property of a particle that determines its resistance to acceleration and its contribution to energy. It plays a central role in both classical and quantum physics.

File:Mass energy relation.png
Mass is related to energy and inertia in physical systems.

Description

Mass measures how a particle responds to forces and how it contributes to the total energy of a system. In quantum theory, mass affects how particles propagate and interact.

Mass is closely related to energy and plays a role in determining the behavior of particles in fields and interactions.

Properties

  • measure of inertia
  • related to energy
  • influences particle motion
