Lesson Topic
mass-energy equivalence
Lesson Outline
Discuss why mass energy equivalence is a key to understanding how energy is related in nuclear reactions.
Introduce the concept of rest energy as potential energy. Discuss how energy is released as mass is depleted. Review and discuss Einstein's equation relating mass deficit to energy, how mass and energy are two sided of the same "physics coin". Present examples of rest energy being converted into different forms. Discuss that work, the product of force x distance involves a transfer of energy
