If a 5.2 kg mass is completely converted into energy, how much energy, in joules, would be released? Compare this value to the amount of energy released when 5.2 kg of liquid water at 0°C freezes. (The latent heat of fusion of water is 3.34 ✕ 105 J/kg.)
When 4.00g of hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium in the sun, 0.0265 g of matter is converted into energy. Calculate how much energy is given off by using the mass converted to energy and the speed of light = 3.00x108 m/s and that a joule = kgꞏm2/s2
By converting the mass of one person (68 kg) completely into energy, how much energy may be released?

As we have seen in the text, the conversion of four hydrogen atoms to one helium atom results in the conversion of about 0.02862 times the mass of a proton to energy. How much energy in joules does one such reaction produce? (See Appendix E for the mass of the hydrogen atom, which, for all practical purposes, is the mass of a proton.)arrow_forward(a) Calculate the energy released by the destruction of 1.00 kg of mass.
