A nitrogen nucleus bombarded with an alpha particle produces an oxygen nucleus and a proton. The nuclear reaction for this process is \(^4_2H + ^{14}_2N \to ^{17}_{8}O + ^1_1H + Q\). Which of the following statements about the reaction is not correct?
Nuclear fission is preferred to nuclear fusion in the generation of energy because?
The mode of transference of heat which does not require any material medium is
Determine the value of x from the nuclear reaction below,
\(^{222}_{86}Rn\) → \(^{x}_{88}Ra\) + 2β + energy
A black body radiates maximum energy when its surface temperature T and the corresponding wavelength \(\lambda\)max are related by the equation \(\lambda\)max T = constant. Given the values of the constant and surface temperature as 2.9 x 10\(^{-3}\) mK and 57°C respectively; Calculate the frequency of the energy radiated.
