Question 8 - E for Einstein
Standing for energy, the "E" in Einstein's equation E=mc2 should be uppercase because, in physics, a lower case "e" refers to what?
A. Equivalence principle B. Entropy of a black hole
C. Electric elementary charge of a proton D. Escape velocity
Spoiler
Joey said he is not math and science.
He figured since e is an electron he thinks it would not be C. There is nothing in "this big old noggin'" of his that has an answer for this.
Walk

Spoiler
The charge of a proton and electron are the same, except the proton is positive and the electron is negative. Since Joey's not into science, he didn't know this. At least he knew what an electron was.

C would be my guess, but I would never pull the trigger on it.

e is the charge on an electron, but the use of capital letters for non-vector quantities having to do with energy AFAIK comes well before the discovery of the electron.

I know it isn't B or D. Since I have lifelines I'll use a JTQ here.
