Question 1 The sun generates its energy through nuclear fusion, making helium from hydrogen. The main process by which this happens, called the proton-proton chain, goes as follows: . Two protons come together to create deuterium, a positron, a neutrino, and energy: p + p - D + e* + v + energy . The deuterium fuses with another proton to make *He: D + p - He + energy . Fianlly, "He is produced by fusing two He nuclei together. "He + He - "He + p + p + energy What is the total energy released during the creation of one "He nucleus? Give your answer in MeV, and remember that you need to make two "He nuclei in the process. Be sure to use at least five significant figures for your masses, but your final answer should have three or four sig figs. Question 2 Nuclear medicine often uses radioactive samples as a tracer to monitor processes inside the body. Suppose a nuclear reactor makes a certain isotope sample with an initial activity of 151 mCi, and the sample gets delviered to a hospital 18.0 hours later, when its activity has become 76.6 mCi. Luckily, the sample remains usable until its activity drops below 11.3 mCi. How long after the delivery is this sample usable
