When a four-megaton nuclear bomb is exploded, approximately 18  1015 J of energy is released. How much mass would this represent in a mass-to-energy conversion? (c = 3.00  108 m/s)
 a. 0.20 kg
  c. 1.8 103 kg
  b. 18 kg
  d. 0.050 kg

Question 2

If the mass of a proton is 1.67  10-27 kg, what is the rest energy of the proton? (c = 3.00  108 m/s and 1 eV = 1.6  10-19 J)
 a. 9.4  108 eV
  c. 3.7  108 eV
  b. 4.1  108 eV
  d. 1.2  108 eV
