Excuse my ignorance but I see physicists use c2 in equations and I was wondering what reasoning they use to justify c2 since, as far as I understand, c2 must be an absurd quantity because there is a speed limit imposed by physicists themselves at c. If there is no motion faster than c, how do you justify using c2 in an equation?
