Question

what is the maximum electron energy in neutron beta decay a) 783eV b) 783KeV c) 783GeV d) 783Tev. And please tell that which topic does this question cover in nuclear physics? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

783kev

Explanation:

is the answer of question

Answer 2

The maximum electron energy in neutron beta decay is

(b) 783 KeV.

The maximum electron energy in neutron beta decay is around 782.33 KeV, but here it is given in round off so the value is 783 KeV.

In nuclear physics, this question comes under the sub-categorized topic Beta decay of the main topic Radioactive decay.

• Radioactive decay: It is the breakdown of atom nuclei due to the emission of every in a huge amount in the form of radiation. This is the reason it is also called nucleus disintegration or radioactivity.
• The law of radioactive decay states that ' the disintegration of the nucleus of atom per unit time is constant. It doesn't depend on time.
• There are different types of radioactive decay: Alpha decay, beta decay, gamma decay, nuclear fission, & neutron emission.
• Beta-decay occurs in two different ways:

1. Beta minus decay: The decay in which neutron changes to proton.
2. Beta plus decay: The decay in which a proton changes to a neutron.
