Yes, your logic right, but the formula I would use would be F =3D ma.  =

    Hi Brian,
   =20
    Not to be obnoxious here, but perhaps the formula may have some =
relevance.
   =20
    Although we're not dealing with parameters of light speed, the =
formula does give a very basic premise that will apply to much of the =
physical world.
   =20
    In this formula, it is demonstrated that an increase in mass will =
also bring about an increase in energy if the formula is to remain =
valid.  Any change on one side of the "=3D" sign would also need to be =
reflected on the other side of the "=3D" sign to maintain the ratio =
implied.  ... Just thinkin' in cyberspace...
   =20
    Hope you're having a nice weekend.  It's been a busy one here.
   =20
    Best wishes,=20

        PS,  Jim's formula: E =3D mc2  (energy =3D mass x speed of =
light2) would have little to do with the breaking string problem =
methinks - BH.=20

            If a hammer is unusually heavy will it contribute to string =
breakage?
