Unit Cover Sheet: #11 Notes on Nuclear Energy; #12 Nuclear Energy article
Question of the Day: #5 A thorium atom of mass 232.038 u decays by the emission of an alpha particle to a radium atom of mass 228.031 u. If the alpha particle has a mass of 4.003 u, how much energy in J is released in the process ?
1u = 1.6605 x 10-27 kg
1eV = 1.60 x 10-19 Joules
The 'cheating' equivalence shortcut 1u= 931.5 MeV
Learning Target: I can gather information on the Manhattan Project. I can gather information on Nuclear Energy and how it works.
Agenda: Do QOD #5 set #6; update unit cover sheet to #12; complete and submit O3 if not already done; take #11 notes on nuclear energy- click here - and include video (4:50); start reviewing and highlighting #12 Nuclear energy article; 7.2 quiz will be taken after #12 is reviewed
Collaboration: #
Reflection: closure on learning target/today's lesson.
Assessment: Problems O3 - 18 points
