Chapter 42: Q. 14 (page 1236)

Use the potential-energy diagram in Figure $42.8$ to estimate the strength of the strong force between two nucleons separated by $1.5$ fm.

Short Answer

Expert verified

$F = 8000$

Step by step solution

Given information

we have been given that $F = \frac{- Δ U}{Δ r}$

Simplify

$Δ U = - 20 MeV - (- 70 MeV)$

$Δ U = 50 MeV$

Hence,we will put the value

$F = \frac{- 50 MeV}{1 \times 10^{- 15} m} \times 1.6 \times 10^{- 19} J / eV$

$| F | = 8000 N$

How many protons and how many neutrons are in $(a) {}^{6}{Li}, (b) {}^{54}{Cr}, (c) {}^{54}{Fe}, and (d) {}^{220}{Rn} ?$

The radium isotope ${}^{223}R a$ , an alpha emitter, has a half-life of localid="1650483334573" $11.43 d a y s$ . You happen to have a localid="1650483350108" $1.0 g$ cube of ${}^{223}R a$ , so you decide to use it to boil water for tea. You fill a well-insulated container with $100 m L$ of water at $18 ° C$ and drop in the cube of radium. How long will it take the water to boil?

The half-life of the uranium isotope ${}^{235}U$ is $700$ million years. The earth is approximately localid="1650486537957" $4.5$ billion years old. How much more ${}^{235}U$ was there when the earth formed than there is today? Give your answer as the then-to-now ratio.

a. What are the isotopic symbols of all A = 17 isobars?

b. Which of these are stable nuclei?

c. For those that are not stable, identify both the decay mode and the daughter nucleus.

The radium isotope ²²⁶Ra has a half-life of 1600 years. A

sample begins with 1.00x10¹⁰ ²²⁶Ra atoms. How many are left
