Two isotopes of iodine are 125 53 I and 131 53 I. Determine, for these two isotopes, the difference between the constituents of the nuclei. [1 mark] 0 1 . 2 A 131 53 I nuclide undergoes beta (�... �– ) decay to form a xenon nuclide. State the nucleon number of the xenon nuclide. [1 mark] 0 1 . 3 A 125 53 I nuclide decays by electron capture to form a tellurium nuclide. State two differences between the constituents of the iodine nucleus and the tellurium nucleus it decays into.

In internal conversion all of the excess energy is transferred from the nucleus to an orbital electron through the electromagnetic force. This orbital electron is ejected from the atom. The tellurium nucleus formed in question 01.3 is in an excited state and can undergo internal conversion. Discuss three differences between internal conversion and beta (β– ) decay.

Figure 1 shows a simplified diagram of the sensor. Figure 1 A light ray travels from the light-emitting diode (LED) through the first prism and into the windscreen. The ray reflects off the surfaces of the windscreen at A, B and C and then passes through the second prism into the detector. 0 2 . 1 Suggest how the design ensures that there is no deviation of the ray as it enters the first prism. [1 mark] 0 2 . 2 Suggest two features of the design that ensure that there is no deviation of the ray as it leaves the first prism and enters the windscreen glass. [2 [Show More]
