Answer:

6.39 J of energy is needed to generate 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg mass

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Equation: E = mc²

where the mass, m = 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg

the speed of light, c = 3 * 10⁸ m/s

The amount of energy needed to generate a mass of 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg is calculated as follows:

E = (0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶) (3 * 10⁸)²

E = 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ * 9 * 10¹⁶

E = 0.71 * 9

E = 6.39 J
