how much energy will be released when 50 gm of mass is completely transformed into energy?
Answers
according to Enstien's relativity theorem, mass is converted into energy when it moves with speed of light.
so, energy will be released when mass is completely transformed into energy , E = mc² , where c is velocity of light
m = 50gm = 0.05kg and c = 3 × 10^8 m/s
now, energy will be released = 0.05 × (3 × 10^8)² J
= 0.05 × 9 × 10^16 J
= 4.5 × 10^15 J
hence, 4.5 × 10^15 J , energy will be released when 50 gm of mass is completely transformed into energy.
Answer:
1.5*10^15 joules
Explanation:
Mass is converted into energy , as per the relativity theorem of Enstien's , when object travel with speed of light.
Hence, energy will be released which is as under :
E = mc²
c = velocity of light
m = mass of object
According to question:
m = 50gm = 0.05kg
c = 3 × 10^8 m/s
Hence, Energy = 0.05 × (3 × 10^8)² J
= 0.05 × 9 × 10^16 J
= 4.5 × 10^15 J
4.5 × 10^15 J , energy will be released when 50 gm of mass is completely transformed into energy.
