What Do You Mean Mass is Energy?

As a kid I had no idea what it meant when I was told "Mass is Energy" and "Mass can be converted into energy". No matter how many times someone repeated that "They are just the same thing" it didn't click.
Well hopefully this can clear things up to younger me.

Even though the subject as a whole is still pretty obscure and incredibly complex to me, every bit of simplification and visualization helps me comprehend, or at least discover, just a little bit more.

    A slight correction to 6:28 Light hitting the bottom of the box is not more energetic because gravity at the bottom of the box is stronger. It's more energetic because we are in an accelerating reference frame, so time at the top of the box appears to be moving slower than at the bottom of the box, and thus the light appears to have a lower frequency, ie less energy. The effect from the gravity differential is orders of magnitude less strong.

He was more correct in the next sentence referencing the "gravity well", but most people don't have a very precise intuition for what a gravity well is, and would assume the relevant attribute of a gravity well is that gravity is stronger closer to its center. While that is an attribute of gravity wells, it is not one which is important in explaining lights behaviour in this scenario, and the way he used it here would make an uninformed viewer think that its the *only* relevant attribute in explaining light's behaviour.

One analogy I kept coming back to during this video was the idea of trying to move gyroscopes. When they’re not spinning (essentially energyless), they can be moved and spun however you want with ease. However when they’re spinning (and so have energy), they’re very difficult to move in certain directions. I don’t know if it’s physically accurate compare that effect to inertia of protons and so on but that’s what made sense intuitively to me.

These logical units are inherently stable not just because they are attracted to one another, or some result of a force, but because they are a product of trial and error in a random system, similar to evolution. This is a concept of simplicity we often miss when learning the concepts from the ground up. Instead, like with this video, we have to take the steps away, to see the first steps.

The true secrets of reality were penned and outlined by Tesla, and mysteriously scooped up by the US government after his death - However in my estimation Einsteins Relativity, no matter how plagiarized and how doomed to failure, would allow mankind to stumble half drunk and half sighted in a scientific cul-de-sac while "Other Actors" could investigate the true frontiers of physics with zero restraint, oversight, or competition ;) And you wonder why we started seeing craft defying physics suddenly everywhere. Its just so painfully obvious. Teslas "elastic aether" model is the only correct possible interpretation, and it works as a unified grand theory as well ;) (that's why light is/was so confusing to people for so long, because the fallacy of reifying speed as something moving!! no no, the "speed of light" is a rate of induction in the medium, or rather the fastest rate of disturbance possible within the medium! that's why the mighty sun and the lowly candle can output something at the same velocity -- because its NOT outputting particles, but a transversal wave incorrectly temporally attributed as particles along a temporal axis instead of correctly understand better as a "coaxial" circuit, or transversal waves within the aether (again, the AETHER is being disturbed, nothing IS a wave, EVER.)

    Also what is this about photons increasing kinetic energy in a gravity well? In the vacuum of space photons are moving at the velocity of causality (c), so if their kinetic energy is increasing in a gravity well, where is that energy being expressed? It can’t be a velocity increase because that would violate the velocity of causality. Is it altering the wave length of the photon? That seems unlikely since shorter wavelengths equate to higher energy photons and how is a gravity well compressing the wavelength rather than elongating it? Is it going into the magnitude of the photon and increasing is brightness?

    It must certainly be a change in wave length. Caused by time dilation aka gravity. This is routine in the cosmos via red shift and blue shift. Consider hovering over a black hole or standing on a neutron star, upward light is red shifted and downward light is blue shifted. Difference in wave length is difference in momentum and energy, so the “white box gaining mass from trapped photons” described in the video is a lot more intuitive once you relate it to these things.

    @@AndrewBrownK red shifting of the photon makes sense as it enters the gravity well it’s elongated, but wouldn’t that be in contradiction to an increase in kinetic energy? Wouldn’t that represent a loss of kinetic energy? Longer EM wavelengths have less total energy. Still confused on where the increased kinetic energy is expressed. Seems it would have to be expressed as an increase to the amplitude?

    @@brianbeswick Its the other way around. The red shift comes from leaving the gravity well. Entering the gravity well results in a blue shift. So the photons lose energy from leaving the gravity well and gain energy by entering it. So it was absolutely correct that it would be expressed by a change of wavelength and frequency.

    @@AliothAncalagon how does entering a gravity well cause a compression of the wavelength? The head of the wavelength would feel the gravity more intensely than the tail and elongate it. How would a gravity well compress the wavelength and blue shift it upon entering? Especially if we start thinking about non visible EM like long radio waves that have wavelengths in the kilometers. Regular cosmological blue shift happens when the light source is moving towards the observer which causes a compression of the wavelength. Light entering a gravity well though wouldn’t be compressed.

    Nope. Because the photon isn't "slowed down" to said speed limit due to another effect like mass or inertia. The universe has a certain speed limit for cause and effect. Photons not going faster is simply them obeying the laws of cause and effect.

    No, because if photons did have mass, we might have seen photons that travel on speed that is less than speed of light. Special relativity says that everything that has no mass travels at the speed of light relatively to you, no matter how fast you travel, and also that everything that travels at the speed of light have no mass

    It is not mass that imposes a speed limit. In the right conditions you can make massless things go slow. With enough energy you can make massive things get arbitrarily close to the speed of light. It is the nature of causality that imposes a speed limit, not mass. Mass is not friction, it is inertia.

    You can think about it in this way - imagine a space station, that is very far away from any stars and planets. This station constantly produces a beam of green photons that have identical color. Now we'll launch a ship that would attempt to chase those photons. The ship is able to precisely measure the energy of those photons. After speeding up to a great portion of the speed of light, the ship would notice that photons still move at the speed of light, but now they are more rare and have red color instead of green - by speeding up, we reduced the energy of those photons relatively to us and if we'll slow down, the photons would become green again. A space station sent green photons this whole time, but we saw them as red photons because we had a different speed. What would happen if the ship will hit the speed of light? Well, it's impossible because it would require an infinite amount of fuel, but let's imagine that somehow we managed to do it. If we'll try to measure photons now, we won't be able to do it because the energy of photons got dropped to zero. Photons are energy and if a photon has zero energy, it literally means that this photon does not exist. There are particles that are extremely light, but do have mass and those particles are neutrinos. Most of the neutrinos move at speeds that are close to speed of light, but unlike photons, it's impossible for neutrinos to move precisely at the speed of light, at the same time it's still possible to measure a neutrino that does not move at all.

    I think that the mass of a black body would increase, not because of the mass of the photon, but because of its energy.
