The mass defect of a particular reaction resulted in the production of 5.50 x 1015 joules of energy. What mass (if totally converted to energy) would correspond to this amount of energy? (1 J = 1 kg m2/s2)
(Points : 3)

1.83 x 108 kg

4.95 x 107 kg

6.11 x 10-2 kg

1.64 x 10-1 kg

I got 1.83 x 10^8 kg-- the first one

anonymous · Answer

here again,use einstein's mass-energy equation.your answer should be 6.11*10^-2 kg

anonymous · Answer

E=mc^2
(5.5x10^15 kg m^2/s^2)=mass*(3x10^8 m/s)^2
solve for mass
