Consider a nuclear fusion reaction `A+B rarr C .` Nucleus `A` is moving with kinetic energy `=5 MeV` and collides with mucleus `B` moving with kinetic energy `=3 MeV and forms 'nucleus `C` in excited state. Find the kinetic energy (in MeV) of núcleus `C` just after its formation given that its excitation energy is `10.3 MeV`. Take masses of NUCLEI of `A, B` and `C` as `25.0 amu, 10.0 amu, 34.99 amu`, respectively. (1 amu=930 MeV )
