nuclear energy
The equation says: E [energy] equals m [mass] times c2 [c stands for the speed or velocity of light]. This means that it is mass multiplied by the square of the velocity of light.

protons
A proton is a subatomic particle, which its symbol is p or p+, with a positive electric of +1e elementary charge. And a mass slightly less than of a neutron.
-
neutrons
a neutron is also a subatomic particle, which its symbol is n or n⁰, which has a neutral charge and a mass slightly greater than of a proton.
-
The strong nuclear force pulls together protons and neutrons in the nucleus. At very small distances only, such as those inside the nucleus, this strong force overcomes the electromagnetic force, and prevents the electrical repulsion of protons from blowing the nucleus apart.
