So, I was in a physics lecture a few days ago, and we were being told about special relativity and how it works and stuff. The lecturer went onto the topic of how mass changes with speed when he was asked what would happen to an objects mass when it got to the speed of light. He told the class that if you had a speed of C, your mass would be infinite. He was also wrong.
