The video tutorial explores the concept of mass-energy equivalence introduced by Einstein, crucial for nuclear physics. It explains the structure of the atomic nucleus, including protons and neutrons, and how atomic and mass numbers define elements. The tutorial covers binding energy, mass-energy conversion, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. It also delves into radioactivity, detailing alpha, beta, and gamma decay, and their implications in nuclear reactions. The video concludes with a brief mention of related topics like half-lives and nuclear power.
