8. What do you think of…
Energy (in joules)
= Mass (in kilograms) X
The Speed of Light Squared
(in meters squared per second squared) ?
Complex Science?!?
But did you know these units?
No…
Because you never used E = mc2 !!!
for us…
≠ Using
Knowing = Memorising
9. Mass
What is the mass of 1 litre of water?
A litre of water is defined to have a mass of
one kilogram!
○ m=1
So, E = 1 (9 X 1016)
= 9 X 1016 Joules
That is it!
Was that tough?
You just fruitfully used Einstein’s Equation!!!

12. Einstein’s hypotheses:
1. The laws of nature are equally valid
in every inertial reference frame.
2. The speed of light in empty space is
same for all inertial observers, regard-
less of their velocity or the velocity of
the source of light.

14. WHAT IS THE MAIN THEME OF
THIS ??/?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE JUST SAID THAT THE
VARIATION IN THE SPEED OF THE
PHOTON IS DUE TO THE FRAME
OF REFERENCE.
THE VARIATIONS WAS CLEARLY
EXPLAINED BY EINSTEIN.
FOR THAT PURPOSE HE
CONSIDERED A CART SYSTEM AND
HE EXPLAINED AS FOLLOWS.
17. Best use…
All our energy
comes from the
Sun!
The Sun has
E=mc2 as its
source of energy.
18. Einstein’s relation: E = mc2
4m p − mHe = ∆m > 0 !
∆m = 0.048 ×10 −27 kg
Energy released in one reaction:
(Binding energy)
E = ∆m × c 2 = 26.8 MeV = 4.3 × 10 −12 J
0.007, or 0.7% of the rest energy
of protons (4mpc2) is released
This is 107 times more efficient than
Hans Bethe 1939
chemical reactions!
19.
20. Nuclear reactions?
• Fission: decay of heavy nuclei into lighter fragments
•Fusion: synthesis of light nuclei into a heavier nucleus
Energy released per proton is ~10-20 MeV!!
21. Energy is released in fusion reaction if the sum of masses of initial
nuclei is larger that the mass of the final nucleus
hydrogen
mp + m p
hydrogen
Positron (antielectron)
Deuterium MD + me < 2 mp
∆M = 2 mp- MD - me
Energy released E = ∆M c2
neutrino
Famous Einstein’s relation: E = mc2
Deuterium has larger binding energy than protons (more tightly bound)
22. Fusion: light bind together to form heavy
Fission: break up heavy to form light
Shown is the energy released per fusion/fission event; this is
called the binding energy. Note that a relatively large
amount is released from hydrogen to helium.
Still, it takes 1038 reactions per second to support the sun!
That is the conversion of 5 millions tons of mass into energy
every second. Thus mass is lost from the sun forever. Still,
only 0.07% of its mass will be lost this way (added up over
the billion life time of the sun).
Note the special location of iron.
We revisit this later in Ch 10.
23. Energy Production
Energy generation in the sun
(and all other stars): Binding energy
due to strong
Nuclear Fusion force = on short
range, strongest
= fusing together 2 or more of the 4 known
lighter nuclei to produce forces:
heavier ones. electromagnetic,
weak, strong,
Nuclear fusion can gravitational
produce energy up to
the production of iron;
For elements heavier than
iron, energy is gained by
nuclear fission.
26. EFFECT OF ATOMIC BOMB
200,000 people have been killed by just 2
atomic bombs.
One Hydrogen Bomb could kill 50 times as
many!
We hope that this type of situations should
not occur in future.
Use this technology to a create energy
which will be useful to some other.
33. The problem has been finally solved just recently:
Neutrinos “oscillate”!
They are converted into other flavors: mu and tau neutrinos
Neutrinos should have mass
Particle physics models should be modified
34. Conclusion
Research improves the quality of
living.
If this great equation might be wrong
nothing will be happen to science.
Quality of science increases.

EXCELLENCE”

Editor's Notes
Figure 7.17: The proton–proton chain combines four protons (at left) to produce one helium nucleus (at right). Energy appears as gamma rays and as positrons, which combine with electrons to convert their mass into energy. Neutrinos escape, carrying away about 2 percent of the energy.
