← All Quizzes

← Helium-3 and deuterium react to give helium-4 and a proton. The atomic masses are 3.016029 u, 2.014102 u, 4.002603 u and 1.007825 u in that order. Use 1 u = 931.494 MeV/c². What energy is released?A nuclear power plant makes 520 MW of heat for one year (3.156 × 10⁷ s). How much mass is turned into energy in that year? Use c = 2.998 × 10⁸ m/s. →
