Are the nucleons fundamental particles, or do they consist of still smaller parts? One way to find out is to probe a nucleon just as Rutherford probed an atom. What should be the kinetic energy of an electron for it to be able to probe a nucleon? Assume the diameter of a nucleon to be approximately 10^-15

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Explanation- Each particle (neutron and proton) present inside the nucleus is called nucleon .

Let $λ = 10^{- 15} m$

$λ = \frac{h}{p}$

and KE= PE

$E = h c / λ$ = $\frac{6.6 \times 10^{- 34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{10^{- 15} \times 1.6 \times 10^{- 19}}$ eV

K.E= 10⁹eV

Find the mass number of an atom whose radius is half of that of a given atom of mass number 192.

alok kumar singh

$r = R_{0} {(192)}^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\frac{r}{2} = R_{0} {(m)}^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$m = \frac{192}{8} = 24$

A nuclear fusion reaction is given by If atomic mass of He is 4.0026 amu and that of O is 15.9994 amu then the Q-value of the reaction will be approximately

alok kumar singh

Q = [4 *4.0026 – 15.9994] *931.5 MeV

Q = 10.2 MeV

A radioactive simple is undergoing a decay. At any time t₁, its activity is A and another time t₂, the activity is $\frac{A}{5} .$ What is the average life time for the sample?

alok kumar singh

$A = A_{0} e^{- λ t_{1}}$ [Radio active decay law]

$\frac{A}{5} = A_{0} e^{- λ (t_{2} - t_{1})}$

$\Rightarrow A v e r a g e l i f e = \frac{1}{λ} = \frac{(t_{2} - t_{1})}{l n 5}$

A sample contains 10^-2kg each of two substances A and B with half lives 4s and 8s respectively. The ration of their atomic weights is 1 : 2. The ratio of the amounts of A and B after16s is $\frac{x}{100}$ . The value of x is ______.

alok kumar singh

$f o r A, t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 4 s e c$

$= m A_{0} e^{-} \frac{0.693}{4} \times 16$

$m_{A} = m_{A 0} e^{- 4 \times 0.693}$ -(1)

for B,

for B, $t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 8 s e c$

$m_{B} = m_{B_{0}} e^{- 2 \times 0.693}$ -(2)

$\frac{m_{A}}{m_{B}} = \frac{m_{A O}}{m_{B O}} \frac{e^{- 4} \times 0.693}{e^{- 2} \times 0.693}$

$\frac{m_{A}}{m_{B}} = \frac{25}{100} = \frac{x}{100} x = 25$

A nucleus with mass number 240 breaks into two fragments each of mass number 120, the binding energy per nucleon of unfragmented nuclei is 7.6MeV while that of fragments is 8.5MeV. The total gain in the Binding Energy in the process is:

alok kumar singh

The reaction is X²? → Y¹²? + Z¹²?
Binding energies per nucleon are: X=7.6 MeV, Y=8.5 MeV, Z=8.5 MeV.
Gain in binding energy (Q) = (Binding energy of products) - (Binding energy of reactants)
Q = (120 × 8.5 + 120 × 8.5) - (240 × 7.6) MeV
Q = (2 × 120 × 8.5) - (240 × 7.6) MeV = 2040 - 1824 = 216 MeV.
