उत्तर
The binding energy of the nucleus of mass number 240, B1=7.6×240=1824 MeV
The binding energy of each product nucleus, B2=8.5×120=1020 MeV
Then, the energy released as the nuclues breaks is given by
E=2B2−B1=2×1020−1824=216 MeV

Deuteron is a bound state of a neutron and a proton with a binding energy B = 2.2 MeV. A γ-ray of energy E is aimed at a deuteron nucleus to try to break it into a (neutron + proton) such that the n and p move in the direction of the incident γ-ray. If E = B, show that this cannot happen. Hence calculate how much bigger than B must E be for such a process to happen.
