Order of magnitude of density of uranium nucleus is \((m_p = 1.6 \times 10^{-27}\) kg\()\)

A neutron moving with a speed \(v\) makes a head on collision with a hydrogen atom in ground state kept at rest. The minimum kinetic energy of neutron for which inelastic collision will take place is

In a nuclear reactor, \(^{235}\text{U}\) undergoes fission liberating 200 MeV of energy. The reactor has a 10% efficiency and produces 1000 MW power. If the reactor is to function for 10 yr, then find the total mass of uranium required.

In the reaction \( {}_7N^{14} + \alpha \longrightarrow {}_8X^{17} + {}_1p^1 \), identify \( X \).
