Calculate the Q-values of the following fusion reactions :-
(a) `""_1^2H + ""_1^2H → ""_1^3H + ""_1^1H`
(b) `""_1^2H + ""_1^2H → ""_2^3H + n`
(c) `""_1^2H + ""_1^3H → _2^4H + n`.
Atomic masses are `m(""_1^2H) = 2.014102 "u", m(""_1^3H) = 3.016049 "u", m(""_2^3He) = 3.016029 "u", m(""_2^4He) = 4.002603 "u".`
(Use Mass of proton mp = 1.007276 u, Mass of `""_1^1"H"` atom = 1.007825 u, Mass of neutron mn = 1.008665 u, Mass of electron = 0.0005486 u ≈ 511 keV/c2,1 u = 931 MeV/c2.)

उत्तर
(a) `Q = [2 xx m""_1^2"H" - (m(""_3^3"H") + m(""_1^3"H"))]c^2`
`= (4.028204 - 4.023874) xx 931` MeV
= 4.05 MeV
(b) `Q = [2 xx m ""_1^2"H" - (m_2^3"H" + m_n)]c^2`
`= [4.028204 - 4.024694] xx 931`
`= 0.00351 xx 931`
= 3.25 MeV
(c) `Q = [m ""_1^2"H" + m _1^3"H" - m _1^4"He"- m_n)]c^2`
`= (2.014102 + 3.016049 - 4.002603 - 1.008665) xx 931`
= 17.57 MeV

Free 238U nuclei kept in a train emit alpha particles. When the train is stationary and a uranium nucleus decays, a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x in time t after the decay. If a decay takes place when the train is moving at a uniform speed v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger will be
Show that the minimum energy needed to separate a proton from a nucleus with Zprotons and N neutrons is `ΔE = (M_(Z-1,N) + M_B - M_(Z,N))c^2`
