The binding energy of deuteron is 2.2 MeV and that of is 28 MeV. If two deuterons are fused to form one then the energy released is:
1. | 25.8 MeV | 2. | 23.6 MeV |
3. | 19.2 MeV | 4. | 30.2 MeV |
The binding energies of the nuclei A and B are Ea and Eb respectively. If three atoms of the element B fuse to give one atom of element A and an energy Q is released, then Ea, Eb and Q are related as:
1. Ea – 3Eb = Q
2. 3Eb – Ea = Q
3. Ea + 3Eb = Q
4. Eb + 3Ea = Q
If M (A, Z), , and denote the masses of the nucleus , proton, and neutron respectively in units of u (1 u = 931.5 MeV/c2) and BE represents its binding energy in MeV, then:
1. | \(M(A, Z)=Z_p+(A-Z) M_n-B E / c^2\) |
2. | \(\mathrm{M}(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{Z})=\mathrm{ZM}_{\mathrm{p}}+(\mathrm{A}-\mathrm{Z}) \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{n}}+\mathrm{BE}\) |
3. | \(M(A, Z)=Z_p+(A-Z) M_n-B E\) |
4. | \(\mathrm{M}(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{Z})=\mathrm{ZM}_{\mathrm{p}}+(\mathrm{A}-\mathrm{Z}) \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{n}}+\mathrm{BE} / \mathrm{c}^2\) |
If in a nuclear fusion process. the masses of the fusing nuclei be \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) and the mass of the resultant nucleus be \(m_3,\) then:
1. | \( m_3=\left|m_1-m_2 \right|\) | 2. | \( m_3<\left ( m_1+m_2 \right ) \) |
3. | \( m_3>\left ( m_1+m_2 \right ) \) | 4. | \( m_3=\left ( m_1+m_2 \right ) \) |

In a fission reaction,
