why does matter release all its energy upon contact with the opposite charge? Hows does charge bind the energy into particles?
Antimatter is a type of matter composed of particles that have the same mass as their corresponding particles in ordinary matter, but with opposite charges.
Antimatter can be created through high-energy particle collisions, such as those that occur in particle accelerators, or through certain types of radioactive decay.
Antimatter and ordinary matter have opposite charges, so when they come into contact, the particles of each type are attracted to each other and combine, resulting in the release of a large amount of energy in the form of radiation.
Antimatter has potential uses in medical and scientific research, as well as in propulsion systems for space travel. However, it is currently difficult and expensive to produce and store in large quantities.
It is currently believed that the universe is composed mostly of ordinary matter, with very small amounts of antimatter present. The reason for this imbalance is still a subject of study and debate among scientists.
