Nuclear power comes from the conversion of mass to energy by the equation E=mc2. In nuclear reactions the energy released is found by taking the total of the mass of the reactants minus the total mass of the products and mulitplyig by c2. We are going to look at the enrgy produced by a typical fusion reaction and a typical fission reaction and compare that to the energy content of chemical reactions Fission is splitting an atom into two smaller...

The Large Electron-Positron Collider (LEP) was an accelerator at CERN, the International particle physics laboratory in Europe. As its name implies, at LEP electrons (e- with mass of 0.51 MeV/c2) were collided close to head-on with their anti-particle, positrons (e+ with the same mass). Each of these particles was accelerated to an energy of 104.5 GeV by the time they collided. What is the Lorentz factor $\gamma$ of an electron at this energy? How fast as a fraction of the...

When an alpha particle collides elastically with a nucleus, the nucleus recoils. Suppose a 4.35 MeV alpha particle has a head-on elastic collision with a gold nucleus that is initially at rest. What is the kinetic energy of (a) the recoiling nucleus and (b) the rebounding alpha particle? The gold nucleus has a mass of 197 u and the alpha has a mass of 4.0 u.
