The starship Enterprise, of television and movie fame, is powered by combining matter and antimatter. If the entire 400-kg antimatter fuel supply of the Enterprise combines with matter, how much energy is released? How does this compare to the U.S. yearly energy use, which is roughly 1.0 * 1020 J ?
Question: If the entire 450 kg antimatter fuel supply of the Enterprise combines with the same amount of
matter and is complete converted into energy, how much energy is then released? How does this compare
to the U.S. yearly energy use, which is roughly 1.0 * 1020J?1
