Answer:

D) 1.5032 x 10^-10 J

Explanation:

The rest energy of a proton, E₀, follows the equation:

E₀ = mp*rate²

Where mass of proton, mp = 1.6726 x 10^-27kg

rate = 2.9979 x 10^8 m/s (2.9979 x 10^9 m/s is not the speed light)

E₀ = 1.6726 x 10^-27kg * (2.9979 x 10^8 m/s)²

E₀ =1.5032 x 10^-10 J

Right answer is:

D) 1.5032 x 10^-10 J
