Answer:
11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J or 7.3 MeV is given off
Explanation:
Mass of an alpha particle = 4.0026u, ∴ mass of three = 12.0078u
Find the difference in mass.
Mass of three alpha - Mass of Carbon nucleus
12.0078u - 12u = 0.0078u
Since 1u = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
Therefore, 0.0078u = 1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷
Now that we know Mass(m) = 1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷ and Speed (c) 3 x 10⁸ m²s⁻²
Formular for Energy ==> E₀ = mc²
E = (1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷) (3 x 10⁸ m²s⁻²)²
E = (1.2948 x 10⁻²⁷) (9 x 10¹⁶) J
E = 11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J
Or, if you need your energy in MeV
1 MeV = 1.60x10⁻¹³ J
Just do the conversion by dividing 11.6532 x 10⁻¹¹ J by 1.60x10⁻¹³ J
It will give you 7.3 MeV
The two units are Inches of Mercury and Millibars
The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation. Ocean water is constantly evaporating, increasing the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air to form rain and storms that are then carried by trade winds, often vast distances. In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area.
i hope this if not sorry
Axial Tilt and Sun Energy
This axial tilt means that during the Earth's journey around the sun the poles receive varying amounts of sunlight. The equator, however, receives relatively consistent sunlight all year. The consistency of energy means the equator's temperature stays relatively constant all year.
