    If a proton and antiproton come close to each other and annihilate, how much energy will be released :-                               

    A)  \[1.5\times {{10}^{-10}}J\]            

    B)  \[3\times {{10}^{-10}}J\]

    C)  \[4.5\times {{10}^{-10}}J\]            

    D)  \[6\times {{10}^{-10}}J\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Mass of proton = mass of antiproton \[=1.67\times {{10}^{-27}}kg=1\] amu energy equivalent to \[1\text{ }amu=931\text{ }MeV\] so energy equivalent to                         \[2\text{ }amu=2\times 931\text{ }MeV\] \[=1862\times {{10}^{6}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\]joule \[=2.97\times {{10}^{-10}}\]  joule \[=3\times {{10}^{-10}}\] joule
