The ionization power of the three radiations from radioactive substances arranged in ascending order is Alpha, beta, gammaBeta, alpha, gammaAlpha, gamma, betaGamma, beta alpha2. Black-body radiation can simply be defined as "the radiation from a perfect absorber"FalseTrue3. The discovery of Artificial Radioactivity and the production of Radionuclide can be dated back to 19301936193219344. Define "radioactive decay" The process by which atomic nuclei decayThe process by which an atom loses its mass over timeThe process by which an atom loses its electrons to the surroundings5. What is the difference in mass between before and after a nuclear interactionNone of the aboveMass defectBinding energy per nucleonBinding energy6. The sun produces its light energy from the fission of helium atoms. FalseTrue7. The sun produces its light energy from the fission of helium atoms. TrueFalse8. The nucleons in a nucleus are attracted by Gravitational forceElectrostatic forceMagnetic forceNuclear force9. A neutron is captured by a nucleus. Which of the following gives the changes in the atomic (proton) number and mass (nucleon) number of the nucleus? Proton number increases by 1 and nucleon number increases by 1Proton number unchanged and nucleon number increases by 1Proton number increases by 1 and nucleon number unchangedProton number unchanged and nucleon number unchanged10. An alpha particle is half the size of a helium atom. TrueFalse11. The nuclear radius of nucleus is1.3 x 10ˆ-15 m2.6 x 10ˆ-13 m1.3 x 10ˆ-13 m2.6 x 10ˆ-15 m12. A reactor design that utilizes plutonium-239 is known as a fast breeder reactorFalseTrue13. Which of the following is used as a neutron absorber in the nuclear reactorWaterDeuteriumCadiumSome compound of uranium14. The Radionuclide introduced into the body is chemically bond to a complex that acts characteristically within the body; it is commonly known as ScannerTracerDetectorTracker15. The strong force keeps the atom together, the weak force is responsible for decay.FalseTrue16.
