On Dec 5, 2022, scientific history was made at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in Livermore, California when nuclear fusion was achieved when the 192 lasers deposited about 2 Megajoules (MJ) of energy into a frozen pea sized deuterium-tritium pellet and ignited the pellet through nuclear fusion to release 3 MJ of energy. The metric prefix mega means million (10^6). a) How much mass (kg) would be required to release 1 MJ of energy?
The total amount of energy consumed in the Philippines in 2010 is about 8.6 x1019 J. A ten-centavo coin has a mass of 2.9 x 10-3 kg. How many ten-centavo coins have the equivalent of this amount of energy?
Einstein's mass-energy equation is E=mc 2 , where mass is in kilograms and the speed of light is 3.00×108m/s. The unit of energy is the joule (4.184J=1cal;1000cal=1kcal,1J=1kg⋅m2/s2).
1) Calculate the energy released, in calories, when 1 g of matter is converted to energy, then calculate the energy released, in kilocalories, when 1 g of matter is converted to energy.
