Vedclass · Answer

(C) The mass of $1 	ext{ a.m.u.}$ is $1.66 	imes 10^{-27} 	ext{ kg}$.Using Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula,$E = mc^2$,where $c = 3 	imes 10^8 	ext{ m/s}$ is the speed of light.$E = (1.66 	imes 10^{-27} 	ext{ kg}) 	imes (3 	imes 10^8 	ext{ m/s})^2$$E = 1.66 	imes 10^{-27} 	imes 9 	imes 10^{16} 	ext{ J}$$E \approx 14.94 	imes 10^{-11} 	ext{ J} \approx 1.5 	imes 10^{-10} 	ext{ J}$.Therefore,the correct option is $C$.
