And even if you choose to believe the ice 'became' the energy and there is less water in existence you would be incorrect. The water consists of many particles of ice. When one of the ice particles melts, the effect this transition of the ice has on the neighboring ice and water is energy. There are physical effects occurring. The physical effects of the ice transitioning to liquid water is energy. The aether consists of particles of matter. When the matter transitions to aether, the effect this transition of matter to aether has on the neighboring matter and aether is energy. There are physical effects occurring.

The energy created is the measurable physical effect of ice transitioning to liquid water. The water consists of many particles of ice.

I suspect he thinks about it correctly - that matter is just a different form of energy like heat is another form. That this is so follows from the modern defintion of energy based on Noethers Theorem. Note E=MC'2 does not say mass and energy are the same thing or that energy has mass - simply that it is another form of energy. > What happened to the mass associated with > the matter? Did it disappear? Nope - it was simply converted to another form of energy like heat energy for example can be converted to EM energy. No mystery involved.

No mystery involved. > And this is exactly the misunderstanding of what energy is that I am discussing. Mass does not convert to energy. Mass is not a form of energy. The effect matter transitioning to aether has on the neighboring matter and aether is energy. The effect mass transitioning from a compressed to an uncompressed state has on the surrounding mass is energy. When matter transitions to aether the physical effect the increase in volume the mass associated with the transition undergoes is energy. Mass is associated with a material substance. Matter and aether are different states of this material substance. Matter is compressed aether and aether is uncompressed matter. When matter transitions to aether the effect the increase in volume the mass associated with the transition undergoes is energy. Energy is the physical effects associated with mass transitioning from matter to aether. Where matter is 'created' in the universe is where the pressure is great enough to compress aether into matter. > Thanks > Bill > > > And if you say matter 'becomes' energy > > then you still have the same issue of what happened to the mass > > because energy is mass-less. > > > So, in E=mc^2, what happens to the mass? > > > In nuclear fission and nuclear fusion, when energy is created, is > > there more, less, or the same amount of mass in existence in the > > universe? > >
