Use the following information to answer this analytic question The sun produces energy through nuclear fusion. In one particular reaction, energy is released when a hydrogen-2 nucleus fuses with a hydrogen-3 nucleus. This produces a helium-5 nucleus that is unstable and that decays to a helium-4 nucleus and a neutron. The fusion reaction chain is H + > - He – În + He The masses of two of these particles are given in the table below. Particle Isotope Notation...
Calculating Mass Defect and Nuclear Binding Energy Learning Goal: To learn how to calculate the binding energy of a nucleus. The measured masses of nuclei are consistently lower than predicted by the sum of their particles. This discrepancy is called the mass defect, and it can be used to calculate the nuclear binding energy according to Einstein's famous equationΔE = Δmc2 where ΔE is the energy produced, Δm is the mass lost, and c 3.00 x 108 m/s. Nuclear binding energy is the energy holding the...

In a nuclear reactor, neutrons released by nuclear fission must be slowed down before they can trigger additional reactions in other nuclei. To see what sort of material is most effective in slowing (or moderating) a neutron, calculate the ratio of a neutron's final kinetic energy to its initial kinetic energy, Kf/Ki , for a head-on elastic collision with each of the following stationary target particles. (Note: The mass of a neutron is , where the atomic mass unit, m=1.009u...
