A radioactive plutonium nucleus is split up into its components. The difference in mass between the nucleus and its components (mass defect) is found to be 1.55 x 10^-3 u. a) calculate the energy equivalent in terms of MeV.
b) express the energy obtained in terms of joules.

Examine the drawing of a molecule. each ring represents an atom of nitrogen (n). what’s the chemical formula of this substance?

Asatellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours iscalled a geosynchronous satellite. if a geosynchronoussatellite is in an equatorial orbit, its position appearsstationary with respect to a ground station, and it is known as ageostationary satellite find the radius rof the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth.(note that ris measured from the center of the earth, not the surface.) you mayuse the following constants: the universal gravitational constant g is 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\; {\rm n \; m^2 / kg^2}. the mass of the earth is 5.98 \times 10^{24}\; {\rm kg}. the radius of the earth is 6.38 \times 10^{6}\; {\rm m}.
