The mass defect is 0.5% in a nuclear fusion reaction. Find the energy released in the fusion of 5 kg mass.

Explanation

To find the energy released in the fusion of 5 kg mass with a mass defect of 0.5%, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the mass defect
The mass defect is given as 0.5% of the total mass.

\[ \text{Mass defect} = \frac{0.5}{100} \times 5 \, \text{kg} \]
