Write one balanced equation to show Emission of `beta^-` (i.e. a negative beta particle)
उत्तर
Emission of `beta^-` (i.e. a negative beta particle)
When an energetic `gamma` - ray photon falls on heavy substance, it is absorbed by some nucleus of the substance, and its energy gives rise to the production of an electron and a position. This phenomenon in which energy is converted into mass is called pair production.

What is a neutrino?
Two cars of mass m1 and m2 are moving in circles of radii r1 and r2, respectively. Their speeds are such that they make complete circles at the same time t. The ratio of their centripetal acceleration is:
Are the nucleons fundamental particles, or do they consist of still smaller parts? One way to find out is to probe a nucleon just as Rutherford probed an atom. What should be the kinetic energy of an electron for it to be able to probe a nucleon? Assume the diameter of a nucleon to be approximately 10–15 m.
