Find the minimum energy that a `gamma`-ray must have to give rise to an electron -positron pair. `{:("Mass of electron",= 0.00055 am u,),("Mass of pos

Correct Answer - A::B::D `A=[(cos alpha,sin alpha,0),(cos beta,sin beta,0),(cos gamma,sin gamma,0)][(cos alpha,cos beta,cos gamma),(sin alpha,sin beta,sin gamma),(0,0,0)]` Clearly, A is symmetric and `|A|=0`, hence, singular and not invertiable. Also, `A A^(T)...

Correct Answer - (a) `2` , (b) yes

Correct Answer - `14.8 kV`

Correct Answer - 1.98MeV.

Correct Answer - Electron capture

Correct Answer - C For `alpha=-pi//2,beta=pi//2andgamma=2pi` `sinalpha+sinbeta=singamma=-2` Hence, the minimum value of the expression is negative.

Correct Answer - A `(a)` `a=e^(ialpha)`, `b=e^(ibeta)`, `c=e^(igamma)` Clearly `a+b+c=0` `impliesa+b+c=0=(1)/(a)+(1)/(b)+(1)/(c )` `impliesa^(3)+b^(3)+x^(3)=3abc` `impliessin3alpha+sin3beta+sin3gamma=sin(alpha+beta+gamma)`

Correct Answer - D `(d)` We have `betaalpha+gammaalpha+alphabeta=0` `Delta=(1)/(alpha^(3)beta^(3)gamma^(3))|{:(betagamma,gammaalpha,alphabeta),(gammaalpha,alphabeta,betagamma),(alphabeta,betagamma,gammaalpha):}|` `=(1)/(alpha^(3)beta^(3)gamma^(3))|{:(betagamma+gammaalpha+alphabeta,gammaalpha,alphabeta),(gammaalpha+alphabeta+betagamma,alphabeta,betagamma),(alphabeta+betagamma+gammaalpha,betagamma,gammaalpha):}|` [using `C_(1)toC_(1)+C_(2)+C_(3)`] `=(1)/(alpha^(3)beta^(3)gamma^(3))|{:(0,gammaalpha,alphabeta),(0,alphabeta,betagamma),(0,betagamma,gammaalpha):}|=0` [all zero property].

Correct Answer - `3.47 keV`

Correct Answer - 1.0211 MeV
