उत्तर
- It is known that there exists gravitational force between two masses and it is universal in nature. Our planets are bound to the sun through the gravitational force of the sun.
- The force between two charges there exists electromagnetic force and it plays a major role in most of our day-to-day events.
- The force between two nucleons, there exists a strong nuclear force and this force is responsible for the stability of the nucleus.
- In addition to these three forces, there exists another fundamental force of nature called the weak force. This weak force is even shorter in range than the nuclear force. This force plays an important role in the beta decay and energy production of stars.
- During the fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun, neutrinos and enormous radiations are produced through the weak force.
- Gravitational, electromagnetic, strong, and weak forces are called fundamental forces of nature.

(D) both total momentum and total energy are not conserved
Calculate the height of the potential barrier for a head on collision of two deuterons.
(Hint: The height of the potential barrier is given by the Coulomb repulsion between the two deuterons when they just touch each other. Assume that they can be taken as hard spheres of radius 2.0 fm.)

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
During a nuclear fission reaction,
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`
where MZ,N = mass of an atom with Z protons and N neutrons in the nucleus and MB = mass of a hydrogen atom. This energy is known as proton-separation energy.
Why nuclear fusion reaction is also called thermo-nuclear reaction?
In our Nature, where is the nuclear fusion reaction taking place continuously?
A slab of stone of area 0.36 m2 and thickness 0.1 m is exposed on the lower surface to steam at 100°C. A block of ice at 0°C rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour 4.8 kg of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of the slab is:
(Given latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.36 × 105 J kg−1)
