Concept explainers
(a) To determine:
Find binding energy of
Answer to Problem 14P
Solution:
Binding energy for =1785MeV
Explanation of Solution
According to binding energy per nucleon plot the value of binding energy per nucleon is approximately 7.5MeV for A=238.
Thus, binding energy = 7.5MeV×238
Binding energy for =1785MeV
(b) To determine:
The binding energy of
Answer to Problem 14P
Solution:
Binding energy for =714 MeV
Explanation of Solution
According to binding energy per nucleon plot the value of binding energy per nucleon is approximately 8.5MeV for A=84.
Thus, binding energy = 8.5MeV×84
Binding energy for =714 MeV
