Question:
A cyclotron is used to accelerate protons (\({}^1_1\text{H}\)), Deuterons (\({}^2_1\text{H}\)) and α-particles (\({}^4_2\text{He}\)). While exiting under similar conditions, the minimum K.E. is gained by

- α-particle
- Proton
- Deuteron
- Same for all
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (C): \(K.E. =\frac{q^2}{m}\)
So a deuteron gains the least kinetic energy.
So a deuteron gains the least kinetic energy.

Top Questions on Nuclear Energy
- Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): Nuclear fission occurs rapidly in atomic bomb explosion and occur relatively slowly in a nuclear reactor.
Reasons (R): Nuclear reaction of splitting a massive nucleus into less stable and less massive nuclei with release of energy is nuclear fission.

- Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Nuclear fusion occurs more rapidly in hydrogen bomb explosion, and occur continually in the Sun, releasing energy essential for the life on the earth.
Reason R: Nuclear reaction of less massive nuclei coming together to form less stable and more massive nuclei is referred as nuclear fusion.
