A helium atom has a mass of mHe= 4.002604 u. When disassembled into its constituent subatomic particles (2 protons, 2 neutrons,

and 2 electrons), the well separated individual particles have the following masses: mp=1.007276 u, mn=1.008665 u, and me=0.000549 u. a. How much work, in Joules, is required to completed disassemble a Helium atom? b. Estimate how much work is required to completely disassemble all the helium.

Answer:

28.295244 MeV

Explanation:

m_p = Mass of proton = 1.007276 u

m_n = Mass of neutron = 1.008665 u

m_e = Mass of electron = 0.000549 u

Mass of reactant is 4.002604 u

Mass of the products is

2\times (m_p+m_n+m_e)=2\times (1.007276+1.008665+0.000549)=4.03298\ u

(2 because there are 2 of each)

The difference in mass is

4.03298-4.002604=0.030376\ u

So, the work done in MeV would be

0.030376\times 931.5=28.295244\ MeV

The work done required to completely disassemble all the helium is 28.295244 MeV

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles
