As part of his discovery of the neutron in 1932, James Chadwick determined the mass of the neutron (newly identified particle) by firing a beam of fast meutrons, all having the same speed, as two different targets and measuing the maximum recoil speeds of the target nuclei. The maximum speed arise when an elastic head-on collision occurs between a neutron and a stationary target nucleus. Represent the masses and final speeds of the two target nuclei as m_(1), v_(1), m_(2) and v_(2) and assume Newtonian mechanics applies. The neutron mass can be calculated from the equation: m_(n) = (m_(1)v_(1) - m_(2)v_(2))/(v_(2) - v_(1)) Chadwick directed a beam of neutrons on paraffin, which contains hydrogen. The maximum speed of the protons ejected was found to be 3.3 xx 10^(7) m//s . A second experiment was performed using neutrons from the same source and nitrogen nuclei as the target. The maximum recoil speed of the nitrogen nuclei was found to be 4.7 xx 10^(6) m//s . The masses of a proton and a nitrogen nucleus were taken as 1u and 14 u , respectively. What was Chadwick's value for the neutron mass?

In a nuclear fusion reaction, the loss in mass is 0.3%. How much energy is released in the fusion of 1 kg mass ?

The mass of a nucleus ._(Z)^(A)X is less that the sum of the masses of (A-Z) number of neutrons and Z number of protons in the nucleus.The energy equivalent to the corresponding mass difference is known as the binding energy of the nucleus. A heavy nucleus of mass M can break into two light nuclei of masses m_(1) and m_(2) only if (m_(1)+m_(2)) lt M . Also two light nuclei of masses m_(3) and m_(4) can undergo complete fusion and form a heavy nucleus of mass M'. only if (m_(3)+m_(4)) gt M' . The masses of some neutral atoms are given in the table below: |{:(._(1)^(1)H ,1.007825u , ._(1)^(2)H,2.014102u,._(1)^(3)H,3.016050u,._(2)^(4)He,4.002603u),(._(3)^(6)Li,6.015123u,._(3)^(7)Li,7.016004u,._(30)^(70)Zn,69.925325u, ._(34)^(82)Se,81.916709u),(._(64)^(152)Gd,151.91980u,._(82)^(206)Pb,205.974455u,._(83)^(209)Bi,208.980388u,._(84)^(210)Po,209.982876u):}| The correct statement is:
