In what units should the mass value be expressed when calculating the binding energy of atomic nuclei using the formula ∆Е = ∆m * c2?

As a rule, the calculation is made in units of measurement adopted in the international SI system. That is, the mass defect should be expressed in kilograms (kg), the speed of light – in meters per second (m / s), the resulting value of the binding energy in the atomic nucleus – in joules (J).



One of the components of a person's success in our time is receiving modern high-quality education, mastering the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for life in society. A person today needs to study almost all his life, mastering everything new and new, acquiring the necessary professional qualities.
