Thanks, the pdf file helped me a lot..

Which gas is used in cathode ray experiment by J.J. Thomson & Sir William? The voltage they used was about: 15k-20k V The pressure they used: < 0.1mm of Hg The gas they used: ?

Does electrons contribute to nuclear force.? As per name 'nuclear force', it shouldn't contribute. Even if it does it should be to a very little extent. right?

Thanks, Why can't we just let Fast neutrons into the nuclear reactor? Why they should be converted into Thermal neutrons

I read a sentence in my book saying, The fast neutrons released through the first nuclear fission are passed into the moderator, thus producing (becoming) thermal neutrons. What is a Thermal neutron? What is the difference between Thermal and a Fast Neutron?

In each fission event of nuclear 3 neutrons are released. Is that for all nuclear reactions or just U-235?

I get it, Thanks.

Thats not my point.. Can a neutral particle generate charged particle? That is what happened there..

I was just reading this.. Free Neutron decays into proton, electron and neutrino. neutron --> proton + electron + v (neutrino) ---- My Question: Neutron is chargeless. How can it give proton and neutron which are charged ? (If the question is simple i am sorry, I am new to nuclear physics)

Whatever, . . . But i think the question is kinda interesting. Here is my analysis.. 1) Man made elements are very costly. 2) They are higher in atomic number and weight. 3) They are radio-active. 4) They are .. ? Anything else?

Who said that's my homework?? It was a question in Yahoo answers.. Check it out; http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070204022737AANjXkd&r=w&pa=AptqD2bwHTHf6eCHYqQyuVxnr4SWDYFWr2LRdXEaturQHA--&paid=voted
