Assume that the nuclear binding energy per nuclear \((B/A)\) versus mass number \((A)\) is as shown in the figure. Use this plot to choose the correct choice(s) given below:
1. Fusion of two nuclei with mass number lying in the range of \(51<A<100\) will release energy
2. Fission of a nucleus lying in the mass range of \(200<A<260\) will release energy when broken into two equal fragments
3. Both \(1\) and \(2\)
4. None of these
