The daughter nucleus recoils with a speedA nucleus of 210 82 PO originally at rest emits alpha particle with speed v. what will be the recoil speed of the daughter nucleus?A nucleus of mass 20 u emits a γ photon of energy 6 MeV. If the emission assume to occur when nucleus is free and at rest, then the nucleus will have kinetic energy nearest to (take 1u=1.6×10^−27kg)
