Nuclear Fusion Reaction
In a human-scale model of a nuclear fusion reaction,
two "deuterons" smash together head-on. Each has
a mass of 2.0147kg and is moving at speed vd.
The result is a "Helium-3 nucleus" (mass 3.0160kg)
and a separate "neutron" (mass 1.0090kg
пс
). Amazingly, this reaction produces a positive Wn
of 3.96 × 10 14 J -- by converting mass into kinetic
energy as predicted by Einstein's E = mc².
The "neutron" moves with a speed of un after the
reaction.
