For nuclear reactions, we determine the energy dissipated from the process from the Theory of relativity wherein energy is equal to the mass defect times the speed of light. We calculate as follows:

E = mc^2 = 0.187456 (3x10^8)^2 = 1.687x10^16 J

Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

E = 174.6 MeV

Explanation:

As we know that energy corresponding to the 1 amu mass is given as

E = mc^2

if m = 1 amu

we have

E = 931.5 MeV

so we will have

mass = 0.187456 amu

E = (0.187456)(931.5)

E = 174.6 MeV

A nutrition label indicates that one serving of apple crisp oatmeal has 2.5 grams of fat. How many grams of fat are there in 3.7
kozerog [31]
Use cross multiplication to answer this. Since there is 2.5 grams in 1 serving, you would set it up with grams of fat being the numerator and servings being the denominator, like this:
2.5 / 1 = x / 3.75
Then just do the algebra:
(2.5 / 1) * (3.75) = x
And the answer is:
9.375 = x

What is the dot product of a= -2i - 5j and b=i -4j
Dafna1 [17]
I.i = j.j = 1
i.j = j.i = 0

(-2i - 5j)(i -4j)
= (-2i).i + (-2i).(-4j) + (-5j).i + (-5j).(-4j)
= -2 + 0 + 0 + 20 = 18

romanna [79]
Not sure the precise concept of "normal observation", but I assume that is observed by "eyes".

Eye observation is basically macroscopic, but when you use a mark, which can be regarded as a point of mass, then it goes to microscopic.

Mark is a reference point which you can compare the relative position change, but with your eyes, first you cannot notice microscopic changes, second the eyes cannot precisely set a stable reference point.
