A nuclide 1 is said to be the mirror isobar of nuclide 2 if Z₁ = N₂ and Z₂ = N₁. (a) What nuclide is a mirror isobar of 11²³ Na? (b) Which nuclide out of the two mirror isobars have greater binding energy and why?

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.

Before the neutrino hypothesis, the beta decay process was throught to be the transition, `n -> p + vece`. If this was true, show that if the neutron was at rest, the proton and electron would emerge with fixed energies and calculate them. Experimentally, the electron energy was found to have a large range.

A rectangular, a square, a circular and an elliptical loop, all in the (x - y) plane, are moving out of a uniform magnetic field with a constant velocity `vecv = vhati`. The magnetic field is directed along the negative z-axis direction. The induced emf, during the passage of these loops, out of the field region, will not remain constant for ______.

Distinguish between isotopes and isobars.

Two nuclei have different mass numbers A₁ and A₂. Are these nuclei necessarily the isotopes of the same element? Explain.

James Chadwick, in 1932 studied the emission of neutral radiations when Beryllium nuclei were bombarded with alpha particles. He concluded that emitted radiations were neutrons and not photons. Explain.

Two nuclei may have the same radius, even though they contain different numbers of protons and neutrons. Explain.

A concave mirror of focal length 12 cm forms three times the magnified virtual image of an object. Find the distance of the object from the mirror.
