... gravitational forces are much too small to hold the nucleons together compared to the electrostatic forces repelling the protons. Since stable atoms do exist, there must be another attractive force acting within the nucleus. The nuclear force is independent of charge. It acts equally only between pa ...

... • Nuclear fusion is produced by high temperature resulting in more tightly bound nuclei. • Mass decreases as energy is released. • This is analogous to chemical combustion requiring a high temperature, where the end result is energy release and a tightly bound molecule. • A solution is still being s ...

... 19. Compare the : (a) ionising power, (b) penetration power of α, β and γ-particles. Ans. (a) Ionising power : If one unit is ionising power of γ-radiations, then 100 units is ionising power of β-particles and 10000 units is the ionising power of α-particles. (b)Penetration power : γ-radiations can ...
