Correct Option
Explanation
γ-rays are uncharged photons, so they are not deflected by magnetic fields.

In the nuclear reaction U235 + n -> U236 -> 56Ba141 + 36Kr92 + 3n + Q the average value of Q is found to be 180 MeV. Compute the consumption rate of U235 per year if power generation is to be an average 100 MW (take efficiency = 100%)
A. 42.7237 kg/year
B. 12.7237 kg/year
C. 78.956 kg/year
D. 2.88 × 10^-11 kg/year

Correct Option
Explanation
OCR header indicates option A is correct; it corresponds to converting 100 MW and 180 MeV per fission into mass consumed per year.

Correct Option
Explanation
Sommerfeld extended Bohr's model to include elliptical orbits and relativistic corrections; option D is correct.

When two nuclei of masses m1 and m2 fuse to form nucleus of mass m and some energy is released, then
A. (m1 + m2) > m
B. (m1 + m2) < m
C. m1 + m2 = m
D. All of the above
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
If energy is released in fusion, the resultant mass m is less than the sum m1 + m2 (mass defect), so (m1 + m2) > m.
1545
During negative β decay:
A. Neutron converts into proton
B. Proton converts into neutron
C. Neutron-proton ratio increases
D. None of the above
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
In β− decay a neutron transforms into a proton with emission of an electron, so neutron → proton.
