- $^{144}_{56} Ba$
- $^{91}_{40} Zr$
- $^{101}_{36} Kr$
- $^{103}_{36} Kr$
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
$^{235}_{92}U + ^{1}_{0}n \rightarrow ^{89}_{36}Kr+3 ^{1}_{0}n+X_{X}^{A}$
$92+0=36+Z$
$\Rightarrow Z=56$
$235+1=89+3+A$
$\Rightarrow A=144$
So, $^{144}_{56}Ba$ is generated

- Two identical charged conducting spheres A and B have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is \(q\) and the force of repulsion between them is \(F\). A third identical uncharged conducting sphere C is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with sphere B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres A and B (Radius of A and B are negligible compared to the distance of separation so that they can be considered as point charges) is best given as:

- An electron (mass \(9 \times 10^{-31}\) kg and charge \(1.6 \times 10^{-19}\) C) moving with speed \(c/100\) (\(c\) = speed of light) is injected into a magnetic field of magnitude \(9 \times 10^{-4}\) T perpendicular to its direction of motion. We wish to apply a uniform electric field \( \vec{E} \) together with the magnetic field so that the electron does not deflect from its path. (speed of light \(c = 3 \times 10^8\) m/s):
