Consider the fission of $^{238}_{92}\text{U}$ by fast neutrons. In one fission event, no neutrons are emitted and the final end products, after the beta decay of the primary fragments, are $^{140}_{58}\text{Ce}$ and $^{99}_{44}\text{Ru}.$ Calculate Q for this fission process.
The relevant atomic and particle masses are:
$\text{m}(^{238}_{92}\text{U})=238.05079\text{ u}$
$\text{m}(^{140}_{58}\text{Ce})=139.90543\text{ u}$
$\text{m}(^{99}_{44}\text{Ru})=98.90594\text{ u}$

An aluminium plate fixed in a horizontal position has a hole of diameter 2.000cm. A steel sphere of diameter 2.005cm rests on this hole. All the lengths refer to a temperature of 10°C. The temperature of the entire system is slowly increased. At what temperature willl the ball fall down? Coefficient of linear expansion of aluminium is 23 × 10-6 °C-1 and that of steel is 11 × 10-6 °C-1.
A particle stays at rest as seen in a frame. We can conclude that:
  1. The frame is inertial.
  2. Resultant force on the particle is zero.
  3. The frame may be inertial but the resultant force on the particle is zero.
  4. The frame may be non-inertial but there is a non-zero resultant force.

Two identical pith balls, each carrying a charge q, are suspended from a common point by two strings of equal length l. Find the mass of each ball if the angle between the strings is $2\theta$ in equilibrium.
A hemispherical portion of the surface of a solid glass sphere $(\mu=1.5)$ of radius r is silvered to make the inner side reflecting. An object is placed on the axis of the hemisphere at a distance 3r from the centre of the sphere. The light from the object is refracted at the unsilvered part, then reflected from the silvered part and again refracted at the unsilvered part. Locate the final image formed.
