1751
Which of the following detectors can count fast and operate at low voltage?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Solid-state (semiconductor) detectors operate at relatively low bias voltages and provide fast pulse response, so a solid state detector is correct.
1752
Davison and Germer received the Nobel prize in
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Clinton Davisson received the Nobel Prize in 1937 for experimental confirmation of electron diffraction, so 1937 is correct.
1753
The force which maintains the strict long-range order between atoms of a crystalline solid is the:
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Cohesive forces (interatomic forces) hold atoms in fixed positions, maintaining long-range order in crystals.
1754
Binding energy per nucleon is
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Binding energy per nucleon peaks near iron/medium-mass nuclei, so medium weight nuclei have the greatest values.
1755
The second line of Balmer series has wavelength 4861 Å. The wavelength of the first line of Balmer series is
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
The Balmer first line (Hα) has wavelength 6563 Å, while the second (Hβ) is 4861 Å.
1756
____ is the boson that holds the strong nuclear force.
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Gluons are the gauge bosons that mediate the strong (nuclear) force between quarks.
1757
A large amount of energy can be obtained when:
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Both nuclear fission (heavy into lighter) and fusion (light into heavier) can release large amounts of energy, so either A or B is correct.
1758
Which particle has zero charge and zero rest mass?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
The photon has zero electric charge and zero rest mass.
1759
In a nuclear reactor, which material is often used as moderator?
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Moderators commonly used in reactors include water and graphite to slow down neutrons.
1760
The number of protons in chlorine are
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Chlorine has atomic number 17, so it contains 17 protons.
