If an a nuclear fusion process, the masses of the fusing nucle be m1 and m2 and the mass of the resultant nucleus be m3, then :
m3 = m1 + m2
m3 = | m1 - m2|
m3 < (m1 + m2)
m3 > (m1 + m2)
Curie is a unit of
Energy of gamma rays

Energy released in the fission of a single 92U235 nucleus is 200 MeV. The fission rate of a 92U235 filled reactor operating at a power level of 5 W is.
1.56 × 10-10 s-1
1.56 × 10-11 s-1
1.56 × 10-16 s-1
1.56 × 10-17 s-1
In radioactive decay process, the negatively charged emitted β-particles are.
the electrons present inside the nucleus
the electrons produced as a result of the decay of neutrons inside the nucleus
the electrons produced as a result of collisions between atoms
the electrons orbiting around the nucleus
The fission nuclei is possible because the binding energy per nucleon in them.
increases with mass number at high mass numbers
decreases with mass number at high mass numbers
increases with mass number at low mass numbers
decreases with mass number at low mass numbers
Consider the reaction , if the binding energies of and are respectively α, b and c (in MeV). then the energy (in MeV) released in this reaciton is:
C + a - b
c - a - b
a + b + c
a + b - c
