For lead 82Pb206 (atomic mass = 205.974440 u) obtain (a) the mass defect in atomic mass units, (b) the binding energy (in MeV), and (c) the binding energy per nucleon (in MeV).
Stars generate energy through nuclear fusion. A fusion reaction is exoergic (i.e., it gives off energy) if the product has a lower rest energy than the original nuclei. The binding energy of a nucleus is defined as the difference between the rest energy that the individual particles would have if they were not bound in a nucleus and the rest energy of the nucleus itself. So, stated another way, fusion reactions are exoergic if the binding energy of the product...
Calculate the atomic mass of the chlorine-37 nucleus in amu (to three decimal places) assuming that the mass of a nucleon is 1.008 amu and the binding energy per nucleon is 1.326x10^12 J/nucleon. (1 kg = 6.022x1026 amu)
Problem 4 (1 points) A proton (P) of mass 1.01 u (unified atomic mass unit) traveling a speed of 3.5x109 m/s has an elastic head on collision with a helium (He) nucleus (mwe = 4.00u) initially at rest. What are the velocities of the proton and helium nucleus after collision? Assume the collision takes place in nearly empty space. (Hint: conservation of linear momentum, elastic collision)
A Uranium-235 atom undergoes fission in the following net reaction (induced fission involves an intermediate step as U-236 which we will ignore): U-235 --> X + Y + 2n U-235 is the 'parent', X and Y are 'daughters' (= fission products), n = free neutron. 1 u = atomic mass unit = 1.66 x 10-27 kg mn = mass of a neutron = 1.008665 u mp = mass of a proton = 1.007825 u 1 eV = 1.602 x 10-19...

The most stable nucleus in terms of binding energy per nucleon is ⁵⁶Fe. If the atomic mass of ⁵⁶Fe is 55.9349 amu, calculate the binding energy per nucleon for ⁵⁶Fe. The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.0078 amu, and the mass of a neutron is 1.0087 amu. (1 J = 1 kg・m²/s², 1 amu = 1.66 × 10⁻²⁷ kg)
