A copper penny has a mass of 3.0 g. Determine the energy
Chapter , Problem 18(choose chapter or problem)
A copper penny has a mass of 3.0 g. Determine the energy (in MeV) that would be required to break all the copper nuclei into their constituent protons and neutrons. Ignore the energy that binds the electrons to the nucleus and the energy that binds one atom to another in the structure of the metal. For simplicity, assume that all the copper nuclei are 63 29Cu (atomic mass 5 62.939 598 u).
