The mass of a proton is 1.00728 amu and that of a neutron is 1.00867 amu. What is the binding 60 energy (in J) of a Co nucleus? (The mass of a cobalt-60 nucleus is 59.9338 amu. Speed of light = 27 3.00 × 108 m/s.) O 2.74 x 10-16 -28 9.12 x 107 O 2.74 x 10-19 -13 4.94 x 107 8.20 × 10-11

1. Compute the binding energy (mass defect) of the carbon atom with six protons and six neutrons (denoted as ¹2C). 2. Describe the differences between electromagnetic and particulate radiation. Give examples.

The overall process of thermonuclear fusion in our Sun has four Hydrogens fusing into one Helium in the following process:  411H→42He+201e+ Energy411H→24He+210e+ Energy Each hydrogen has a mass of 1.007825 u The helium has a mass of 4.00260 u What is the energy produced by this reaction in MeV?  The conversion from u to MeV is 931 MeV/u
