1. Which of the following pair of nuclei are isotones? 7. A free neutron decay to a proton but a free proton
(1) 9 10
(2) 3 4 does not decay to a neutron. This is because
4 Be, 5 B 2 He, 2 He
(1) Neutron is a composite particle made of a
(3) 17 17
8 O, 9 F (4) 73 Li, 74 Be proton and an electron whereas proton is a
fundamental particle.
2. Two protons are kept at a separation of 10nm. (2) Neutron is an uncharged particle whereas
Let Fn and Fe be the nuclear force and the proton is a charged particle
electromagnetic force between them- (3) Neutron has larger rest mass than the proton
(1) Fe = Fn (4) Weak forces can operate in a neutron but not
(2) Fe >> Fn in a proton
(3) Fe << Fn
(4) Fe and Fn differ only slightly 8. Two nuclei have mass number in ratio of 1 : 4. The
ratio of their nuclear densities is:
3. The nuclear radius as compared to the atomic (1) 1 : 4 (2) 1 : 2
radius is of the order (3) 1 : 64 (4) 1 : 1
(1) 10-3 (2) 10-5
(3) 10-7 (4) 10-9 9. The binding energy of nucleus is a measure of its
(1) Mass (2) Stability
4. Ratio of nuclear radii of 135Cs to 40Ca is (3) Charge (4) Momentum
(1) 1.40 (2) 1.50
(3) 2.750 (4) 3.375 4
10. The binding energy of α-particle 2 He is 7.047
MeV per nucleon and the binding energy of
5. Let Fpp, Fpn and Fnn denote the magnitude of the net 2
deutron 1H is 1.112 MeV per nucleon. Then in
force by a proton on a proton, on a neutron and by
2
a neutron on a neutron respectively. Neglect the fusion reaction 1H 12 H  42 He  Q , the
gravitational force. When the separation is 1 fm,- energy Q released is
(1) Fpp > Fpn = Fnn (1) 23.74 MeV (2) 32.82 MeV
(2) Fpp = Fpn = Fnn (3) 11.9 MeV (4) 4.94 MeV
(3) Fpp > Fpn > Fnn
(4) Fpp < Fpn = Fnn

6. The range of nuclear forces is about-

(1) 2 × 10–10 m (2) 1.5 × 10–28.0 m
(3) 7.2 × 10–4 m (4) 1.4 × 10–15 m
