Determine the energy produced in the fission reaction whose mass difference is `3.251xx10^(-28) `kg.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given: Mass defect = Difference in actual mass and mass of the product.
`Deltam` = `3.251xx10^(-28) kg`
Velocity of light , c = `3xx10^(8) ms^(-1)`
To find : Energy, E = `Deltamc^(2) = ?`
`E= 3.251xx10^(-28) xx(3xx10^(8))^(2)`
`E=2.93 xx10^(-11) J`
