Question

In a nuclear reaction, the energy released is equal to 8.1 x 1016 joules. Calculate the mass lost in this reaction. (1 J = 1 kg m2/s2)
Answer

7.2 x 1032 kg

2.7 x 108 kg

9.0 x 10-1 kg

----> 7.2 x 10-16 kg
I chose D, it seems like a logical answer.

Answer 1

use \(\sf E=mc^2\)

Answer 2

So then it would be B. At least that is what my calculator gave me.
