Einstein's famous equation, E = mc^2 relates the mass (m) of an object to energy (E). The speed of light (c), is the constant of proportionality. Einstein formulated the equation within his theory of special relativity. Indeed, a physical interpretation of this equation is that any given mass is equivalent to the energy given by the equation, if it were suddenly converted to energy. Therefore the answer to the question is true.

Given, half life of a certain radioactive element = 800 years.
Amount of substance remaining at time t = 12.5%
Lets consider the initial amount of the radioactive substance = 100%
Using the half life equation:
A = A₀(1/2)^t/t₁/₂
where A₀ is the amount of radioactive substance at time zero and A is the amount of radioactive substance at time t, and t₁/₂ is the half-life of the radioactive substance.
Plugging the given data into the half life equation we have,
12.5 = 100 . (1/2)^t/800
12.5/100 = (1/2)^t/800
0.125 = (0.5)^t/800
(0.5)^3 = (0.5)^t/800
3 = t/800
t = 2400 years
Thus the object is 2400 years old.
