A nucleus of mass `M+Deltam` is at rest and decays into two daughter nuclei of equal mass `(M)/(2)` each. Speed of light is c.
The bonding energy per nucleon for the prent nucleus is `E_(1)` and that for the daughter nuclei is `E_(2)`. Then

A

`E_(1) = 2E_(2)`

B

`E_(2) = 2E_(1)`

C

`E_(1) gt E_(2)`

D

`E_(2) gt E_(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Because energy is releasing `implies` Binding energy per nucleon of product `gt` that of parent `implies E_(2) gt E_(1)`.
