Vedclass · Answer

(B) The mass-energy equivalence is given by Einstein's equation,$E = mc^2$. For $1 \ amu$ (atomic mass unit),the equivalent energy is calculated as: $E = (1.6605 	imes 10^{-27} \ kg) 	imes (2.9979 	imes 10^8 \ m/s)^2 \approx 1.4924 	imes 10^{-10} \ J$. Converting this to $MeV$ $(1 \ eV = 1.602 	imes 10^{-19} \ J)$: $E = \frac{1.4924 	imes 10^{-10}}{1.602 	imes 10^{-13}} \approx 931.5 \ MeV$. Thus,$1 \ amu$ is equivalent to $931.5 \ MeV$.

In terms of energy,$1 \ amu$ is equal to:
