(a) What are binding energies for 56Fe and 62Ni ? Does their formation produce energy? (b) Calculate the maximum -energy in the decay of 87Rb to 87Sr. The mass of 87Rb is 86.9091836 ; the mass of 87Sr is 86.9088902 (amu). Assume: Mass of proton=1.007276u, mass of neutron= 1.008665u, and mass of electron =0.000548756. Use 931.494MeV/u to convert to energy
