What happens to mass in a nuclear fusion reaction?
If you talk about fission reaction (current nuclear power plants) then the mass is turned into energy, mostly in a form of heat, that is then turned to make energy in a massive closed system steam turbines plant.If you really mean Fusion reaction (humans not able to replicate such, but such is known to happen in stars), then there are no missing mass.
Is specific weight is a dimensionless quantity?
energy/mass example: calories/gram
Can you weigh energy?
This is a tricky question. Quantum mechanicss shows us that all energy can be turned into mass and all mass into energy. To work out the equivilant mass of an amount of energy (or vice versa) simply use einsteins famous equation E= mc^2 - rearrange m = E/c^2 I do not know of any device that can directly "weigh energy".
What is turned into energy when nuclear fusion?
In nuclear fusion, mass is converted into energy according to Einstein's equation, E=mc^2. When lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, the resulting nucleus is slightly less massive than the sum of the original nuclei, with the "missing" mass converted into energy.
What 2 things increase as kinetic energy increases?
Generally speed. But also, if the obect is for example travellin up, the potential energy also increases.
How hot is the sun?
The Sun is hot because in its core it is turning Hydrogen into Helium by a process called nuclear fusion. The helium is slightly less heavy then the bits of hydrogen used to make it and this difference in mass is turned into energy (light). This energy keeps the Sun hot and makes it shine.
How is a ball being thrown an example of kinetic energy?
A ball has mass, and any moving mass by definition has kinetic energy (which is defined as mass times the square of the velocity).
How do you convert Mass into thermal energy?
You generally need a catalyst or a mechanism to convert the energy. For example to convert fuel (a mass) into thermal energy, oxidizer and a spark are needed.
Why does the mass of a substance remain constant?
Because there is a law of nature that says that matter (mass) can neither be created nor destroyed. However, Einstein proved that mass and energy are actually the same thing (E=MC2), so mass can be turned into energy and energy can be turned into mass.
How do you Store AC power?
ac power cant be stored It is much easier to store DC power. Although you might be able to make a case of "stored AC power" - such as the turning mass of a generator - the kinetic energy of this turning mass is converted into AC current - When load suddenly increases, some of this stored kinetic energy is converted into extra electric energy, and the speed the mass is turning at will begin to decay. Before it decays too much (hopefully), the governor on the generator will increase mechanical energy to the spinning mass to keep the speed at the desired value. So in effect a (small?) amount of energy is being stored in the spinning mass, which is then converted to AC power.
How do the mass and height of object affect the gravitational potential energy?
potential energy is mass times height times gravity acceleration; so for example if you double the height or double the mass you double the potential energy
Who theorized that mass could be turned into energy?
Albert Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2 shows the relationship between mass and energy, proposing that mass can be converted into energy. This theory revolutionized our understanding of the universe and has profound implications in fields like nuclear physics and energy production.

Can energy change into mass?
No. Energy has an ASSOCIATED mass. There is no such thing as mass-to-energy conversion, or energy-to-mass conversion. In a nuclear reaction, for example, BOTH mass and energy are CONSERVED. For a more detailed explanation, check the Wikipedia article on "binding energy".
Is mass increased by kinetic energy?
Yes - any energy implies a corresponding increase in mass. The amount is tiny, almost insignificant, for most day-to-day phenomena. Divide the energy by c2 to get the mass. For example, you need 9 x 1016 Joule to have a mass increase of one kilogram.Yes - any energy implies a corresponding increase in mass.

What is Albert Einsteins famous formula?
Einstein's famous formula is the formula for the mass-energy equivalence: E=mc2 This describes how mass can be turned into energy and vice versa. Thus E,energy= mass X speed of light x speed of light (a very big number). This means a tiny amount of mass converted to energy is huge and is why atom bombs are so powerful.
What are Example of watts in mass nouns?
Examples of mass nouns that can be measured in watts include power, electricity, energy, and heat.
