denotes the mass of the proton and Mn denotes mass of a neutron. A given nucleus of binding energy B, contains Z protons and N neutrons. The mass M (N, Z) of the nucleus is given by(where c is the speed of light)(a) M (N, Z) = NMn + ZMp – Bc2 (b) M (N, Z) = NMn + ZMp + Bc2 (c) M (N, Z) = NMn + ZMp – B / c2 (d) M (N, Z) = NMn + ZMp + B / c2 |

Answer» (c) M (N, Z) = NMn + ZMp – B / c2 Binding energy, B = [ZMp + NMn – M (N, Z)] C2 M(N,Z) = ZMp + NMn - \(\frac{B}{C^2}\) |
