If energy is stored in an object, its mass increases. Mass can be destroyed to release energy. Relativi...The rest energy of an object of mass m is E0=mc2, meaning that mass is a form of energy. If energy is stored in an object, its mass increases. Mass can be destroyed to release energy. Relativistic energy is conserved as long as we define it to include the possibility of mass changing to energy. At extremely high velocities, the rest energy mc2 becomes negligible, and E=pc.
