one thing I think is related to the binding energy, is when a meteorite decelerates entering earth's atmosphere the energy that needs to be released to slow down is more than the energy keeping the solid form of the meteorite. so the deceleration and heat make it explode.
1: How to convert binding energy to energy: E = -1 * Binding energy 2: How to convert energy to binding energy: Binding energy = -1 * E Example: In nuclear fusion reactor mass gets converted to negative binding energy. Said negative binding energy is transferred to our homes through power lines. And an equal amount of positive binding energy is stored in the helium nuclei. (It's a reactor that fuses hydrogen to helium. Fission rector is too hard to use in this example.)
It's also the principle between nuclear fusion in stars. Fusing atoms together, spits out an alpha particle which becomes pure energy. This gives a star its heat and light.
And it also makes it denser throughout all of the alpha captures of 4He! It creates a nuclear fusion chain, which is pretty nice in increasing its mass. Coincidentally, 235U is also the end point element for some neutron stars..
Is the binding energy similar to the strong force or is it a discreet phenomena? So if Im understanding, when particles formed some of their energy went into forming this binding force?
Hi, I have a question. Why is it that the formula contains speed of light, how is the speed of light connected to loss of mass. Does it have to do something with special relativity?
Here are my thoughts on it: Though Einstein did have a lot of theories published on general relativity and special relativity, I wouldn't say that the equation E=mc^2 has any actual connection to special relativity in this case. The speed of light = c, which is just a part of the equation; and in the video, she is using that formula to show how mass is converted to energy, as to when it's translated to the nuclei state. Hope this helped in some way! 👋
Bob's mass is 70 kg, pure fat. Bob starts losing weight by accelerating himself. When 70 kg of mass is lost, speed of Bob is c. And rest-mass of Bob is 0. And energy of Bob is 70 kg * c^2. (Here "fat" means matter-antimatter fuel )
So what exactly is that binding defect energy? Does it not also have mass? Do not all things in the material world have mass? Where does that energy go? Does it stay to bind the nucleus or is it released after binding?
It's the amount of mass that's converted into energy (strong nuclear force) to hold the atom together aka strong force. Because it's "stronger" than the force that would be needed to rip the atom apart.
Thanks, easy to understand follow. I am a self learnt A level student (aged 50), I will go to study physics degree in OU in October. Thank you again.
This was one of my favorite chapters in chemistry thus far!
I can only dream being as smart as her
i had no business finishing this video cuz i had no idea what you said
Wish my physics teacher were that beautiful.
Then you wouldn't be able to concentrate on your studies 😉
Thanks for the education

Thanks taking QM phys now. U make things easy to understand plus your cute. Dan

Energy is always conserved. It's used to bind the nucleus together via gluons.
Hard to focus. Too beautiful.
Her beauty only want to make me want more
Wrong class. This ain't cultural one.
I feel like I'm watching mudfossiluniversity but instead of a old guy it's a woman
I have 0 idea what the intelligent lady is speaking about. Somehow she explains it and I can understand it.

I think mass deficit is a better term. 😅 but I'm no authority.
Wish this video had your face more close up.
