Calculate the amount of energy produced by the conversion of 50.0 kg of
mass into energy. Use 3.00 x 10^8 m/s for the speed of light. Round to 3
significant digits. Which setup will solve this problem?
E = (50.0 kg)(3.00 x 10^8 m/s)
E = (50.0 kg)(3.00 x 10^8 m/s)^2
E = (50.0 kg)(3.00)(1 x 10^8 m/s)^2 - ANS ✓E= (50.0kg)(3.00 x 10^8 m/s)^2
The amount of energy released when 50.0 kg is converted into energy is -
ANS ✓4.50 x 10^18

A carbon-12 atom has a mass defect of 0.09564 amu. Which setup is used to
calculate nuclear binding energy?
0.09564 amu x (1.6606 x 10^-27 kg)/amu x (3.0 x 10^8)^2
0.09564 amu x 1 amu/(1.6606 x 10^-27 kg) x (3.0 x 10^8)^2
0.09564 amu x (3.0 x 10^8)^2
0.09564 amu x (1.6606 x 10^-27 kg)/amu x (3.0 x 10^8) - ANS ✓0.09564
amu x (1.6606 x 10^-27kg)/amu x (3.0 x 10^8)^2
A carbon-12 atom has a mass defect of 0.09564 amu.
