Question

The equation E = mc², where c = the speed of light in vacuum, says that mass can be converted into energy (but doesn’t say how). Explain using the equation why this hints that nuclear weapons are possible.

**The other posting of this question just focused on the nuclear weapons aspect and did not use the given equation above to explain how mass can be converted to energy and how that hints at nuclear weapon possibility. Please explain how mass can be converted on energy using E=mc² and not just give a nuclear weapon example using a different equation.**
