Physics Question on Nuclei

One milligram of matter converted into energy will give

A

90 J

B

9×103J9 \times 10^3 \, J

C

9×1010J9 \times 10^{10} \, J

D

9×105J9 \times 10^5 \, J

Answer

9×1010J9 \times 10^{10} \, J

Explanation

Solution

Given, mass of the matter =1mg=1×106kg= 1 \,mg=1\times10^{-6}\,kg As we know, C=3×108m/sC=3\times10^{8} m /s Matter will be converted into energy by the formula, E=mc2E=mc^{2} =1×106×(3×108)2=1\times10^{-6}\times\left(3\times10^{8}\right)^{2} =1×106×9×1016=1\times10^{-6}\times9\times10^{16} =9×1010J=9\times10^{10}\,J
