The nuclear mass of 37cl is 36.9566 amu. calculate the binding energy per nucleon for 37cl.

The binding energy per nucleon is

Explanation:

Nucleons are defined as the sub-atomic particles which are present in the nucleus of an atom. Nucleons are protons and neutrons.

We are given a nucleus having representation:  

Number of protons = 17

Number of neutrons = 37 - 17 = 20

To calculate the mass defect of the nucleus, we use the equation:

where,

= number of protons  = 17

= mass of one proton  = 1.00728 amu

= number of neutrons  = 20

= mass of one neutron = 1.00866 amu

M = nuclear mass = 36.9566 amu

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate the binding energy of the nucleus, we use the equation:

   (Conversion factor:    )

  (Conversion factor:    )

Number of nucleons in atom = 37

To calculate the binding energy per nucleon, we divide the binding energy by the number of nucleons, we get:

Hence, the binding energy per nucleon is

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j

idk what is it? is this a question that you know the answer or u dont
