Obtain the binding energy of a nitrogen nucleus from the following data: mH=1.00783 um_{\mathrm{H}}=1.00783\,\text{u}, mn=1.00867 um_n=1.00867\,\text{u}, and m(714N)=14.00307 um\left({}^{14}_{7}\mathrm{N}\right)=14.00307\,\text{u}. Give your answer in units of MeV\text{MeV}. Use 1 u=931.5 MeV/c21\,\text{u}=931.5\,\text{MeV}/c^2.
