SOLVED: Problem 6: One of the waste products of a nuclear reactor is plutonium-239 (239Pu). This nucleus is radioactive and decays by splitting into a helium-4 nucleus and uranium-235 nucleus (He 235U). The energy emitted in the plutonium decay is 8.40x10^-13 J and is entirely converted to kinetic energy of the helium and uranium nuclei. The mass of the helium nucleus is 6.68x10^-27 kg, while that of the uranium is 3.92x10^-25 kg (note that the ratio of the masses is 4 to 235). (a) Calculate the
