   Why physicists don’t say: ‘ potential mass/energy E=Mc^2’ ?

   According to SRT rest mass and rest energy have equivalent
   meaning: E= Mc^2 or M= Ec^2.
   Why SRT and Quantum theory use word:’ rest mass /energy E= Mc^2 ‘
   and don’t say: ‘ potential mass/energy E= Mc^2 ’ ?

   When somebody says ‘ the particle in the rest . . .’, then we
   can image that particle was going maybe to sleep, maybe
   to have a cup of coffee . . . . etc.
   That a strange terminology the physicists use.
   ======== .
   My opinion.

   In Classic physics there is ‘ potential energy’ and
   there is ‘ kinetic energy’.
   And „The Law of Conservation and Transformation of
   Energy/ Mass” connects them together.

   In Quantum physics the ’rest mass/enegy’ looks as a static factor.
   I think that there is problem here.
   Because in QT there is ’rest mass/enegy E=Mc^2’ and
   there is active / kinetic energy E=hf. But how „The Law of
   Conservation and Transformation of Energy/ Mass”
   can unite them together nobody explains.

   In other words:
   Dont know how to explain transforms the potenial
   mass/enegy E=Mc^2 into the active / kinetic energy E=hf
   the physicsts began to use new terminology and new words.

   Going back to the Einstein’s question.

   In his Miracle 1905 Einstein wrote the Fourth paper:
   “ On the Electrodynamics of moving Bodies.” ( SRT).
   And as a postscript to his forth, the Fifth paper:
   “ Does the inertia of a body depend upon its energy content?”
   Some months later he realized the answer :
   ‘ Yes, inertia depends on its energy E= Mc^2.
   The Electrodynamics Bodies in inertial movement have
   energy E= Mc^2 – ( hidden energy E= Mc^2)’
   #
   The same Einstein’s question in a little detail interpretation:
   “Does the inertia of a body ( for example: of a light quanta
   or of an electron) depend upon its energy content E=Mc^2 ?”
   Thinking logically, the answer must be : Yes, it depends.
   When new question arise:
   How is possible to understand the connection
   between E=Mc^2 and the ‘ inertia of a body’ ?
   ============== . .
   P.S.
   Someone wrote to me:
   “An old professor of mine used to say
   that anyone who can answer that question
   what inertia is , would win a Nobel Prize. “

   Where does strange E= Mc^2 come from?
   1.-
   In 1905 Einstein asked:
   “ Does the inertia of a body depend upon its energy content?”
   As he realized the answer was:
   “ Yes, it depends on its energy E= Mc^2 ”
   So, Einstein said that E= Mc^2 comes from inertia
   2 -
   In 1928 Dirac said that E= Mc^2 comes from vacuum
   and can be as positive as negative too
   3 -
   Sometimes E= Mc^2 can have ‘rest’ parameter and
   sometimes can be ‘active’ and can destroy cities like
   Hiroshima and Nagasaki
   Why E= Mc^2 is so stange?
   Nobody gives answer

   During our crossing, Einstein explained his theory
   to me every day, and by the time we arrived I was fully
   convinced he understood it.
