Answer:
9*10^13 J
Explanation:
Given that
mass of the material, m = 0.001 kg
speed of light, c = 3*10^8 m/s
To solve this, we would be adopting Einstein's mass - energy relation...
E = mc²
Where
E = Energy, in joules
m = mass, in kg
c = speed of light, in m/s
E = 0.001 * (3*10^8)²
E = 0.001 * 9*10^16
E = 9*10^13 J
Thus, the total energy released would be 9*10^13 J
