Homework Statement
A particle has a mass of 4.032u. What is its mass in MeV/c2
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
4.032u = 4.032 * 1.66*10-27 = 6.69*10-27 kg
Energy equivalent, E = mc2: = (6.69*10-27)*(3*108)2 = 6.02 *10-10J
J→eV (divide by 1.6∗10-19) )=3.76∗109 eV=3760 MeV
How do I find it for MeV/c2
