In physics, the electron volt (eV) is a unit of energy. By definition, it is equal to the amount of energy gained by a single unbound electron when it accelerates through an electrostatic potential difference of one volt. In SI units, it is the number which measures the charge of the electron with the unit changed from C to J. : :: 1 eV = 1.602 176 53(14)×10−19 Joule So 1 Mev which is 1 million eV is 1.60217653 x 10-13 Joules. This is a very small quantity, in fact the energy released by the fission of one atom of U235 is 200 MeV

How many joules are there in 474 MeV?

To convert from mega electronvolts (MeV) to joules, you can use the conversion factor 1 MeV = 1.602 x 10^-13 joules. So, to convert 474 MeV to joules: 474 MeV * 1.602 x 10^-13 joules = 7.595 x 10^-11 joules.


How do you convert joules into MeV?

To convert joules to megaelectronvolts (MeV), you can use the conversion factor 1 MeV = 1.60218 x 10^-13 joules. Simply divide the energy in joules by this conversion factor to get the equivalent energy in MeV.


What does the MeV in MeV photon mean?

The MeV means million electron volts. It's a measure of the energy the energy in the photon, which is a quantum (or specific quantity) of electromagnetic energy. This 1 megaelectron volt = 1.60217646 × 10-13 joules of energy.

How 1 amu equals 931 Mev?

If you look up the equivalent mass of 1 AMU in kilograms, and theequivalent energy of 931 Mev in joules, you'll find, oddly enough, thatE = M c2 .


How many joules in 1 MJ?

MJ means megajoule, and mega is a prefix that means "million".


How many kWh can you produce from 200 MeV?

200 MeV is a tiny quantity, it may sound a lot but is actually about 3 x 10-11 Joules. The point is that in a large fission reactor there are billions of fissions occurring every second and each one releases 200 MeV. As 1 Joule = 1 Watt.sec, and 1 KWh = 3.6 x 106 Watt.secs, you can see that the question is rather unbalanced!


How many MeV's are in one electron volt?

one MeV has 1,000,000 eVs So one eV has 0.000001 MeVs


What is the difference between GeV and MeV electron bolts?

GeV (gigaelectronvolt) and MeV (megaelectronvolt) are units of energy used to describe particle energies. 1 GeV is equal to 1000 MeV. Therefore, GeV electrons have higher energy than MeV electrons. These units are commonly used in particle physics to describe the energy of subatomic particles.


How many volts are in 5 MeV?

1 MeV is equal to 1.6 x 10^-13 volts. Therefore, 5 MeV is equal to 8 x 10^-13 volts.
