Which of the following statements is correct?

The minimum kinetic energy needed by an alpha particle to cause the nuclear reaction ${ }_{7}^{16} N +{ }_{2}^{4} He \rightarrow{ }_{1}^{1} H +{ }_{8}^{19} O$ in a laboratory frame is $n$ (in $MeV$). Assume that ${ }_{7}^{16} N$ is at rest in the laboratory frame. The masses of ${ }_{7}^{16} N, { }_{2}^{4} He, { }_{1}^{1} H$ and ${ }_{8}^{19} O$ can be taken to be $16.006 \ u, 4.003 \ u, 1.008 \ u$ and $19.003 \ u$,respectively,where $1 \ u = 930 \ MeV/c^2$.
