Fusion reaction takes place at high temperature because

(1) atoms get ionised at high temperature 

(2) kinetic energy is high enough to overcome the Coulomb repulsion between nuclei

(3) molecules break up at high temperature

(4) nuclei break up at high temperature

Two radioactive nuclei P and Q, in a given sample decay into a stable nucleus R. At time t=0, the number of P species are 4N0 and that of Q is N0Half-life of P(for conversion to R) is 1 min whereas that of Q is 2 min. Initially there are no nuclei of R present in the sample. When number of nuclei of P and Q are equal, the number of nuclei of R present in the sample would be: 

1. 3N0                                         

2. 9N02

3. 5N02
