- A \(1.66 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~J}, 93.15 \mathrm{MeV}\)
- B \(3 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~J}, 9.315 \mathrm{MeV}\)
- C \(15 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~J}, 931.5 \mathrm{MeV}\)
- D \(2.5 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~J}, 931.5 \mathrm{MeV}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(15 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~J}, 931.5 \mathrm{MeV}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Given, mass is equivalent to \(1 \mathrm{amu}\), i.e. \(m=1 \mathrm{amu}\) \[ =1.6605 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg} \] According to Einstein's mass-energy equivalent equation,…
