Question

Formula for finding speed using binding energy and mass​

Answer 1

Answer:

Energy equivalent to mass defect is termed as binding energy. A nucleus is like an inflexible spherical ball moulded by getting together a huge amount of miniature spherical balls in the nucleons form. Something is required to bound the nucleons collected. It is that something which assists as the glue. Every nucleon has to donate some of its mass, to deliver the energy resulting in a mass defect.

Binding Energy is also defined as the energy required to break down a nucleus into its component nucleons.

Binding Energy is expressed in terms of kJ/mole of nuclei or MeV’s/nucleon.

Binding Energy Formula

Binding Energy = mass defect x c2

where c= speed of light in vacuum

c = 2.9979 x 108 m/s.

Answer 2

Answer:

The formula for finding speed using binding energy and mass is E=mc2.
