86X212 (atomic mass = 211.99068 u) undergoes decay. Assuming all the released energy is in the form of kinetic energy of the particle (atomic mass = 4.002603 u) and ignoring the recoil of the daughter nucleus (84X1208 atomic mass = 207.98123 u), find the speed of the particle. Ignore relativistic effects. Number Units

Suppose some nucleus undergoes decay, releasing 5.4 MeV of
energy. If the daughter product of this reaction is 93X237 (atomic
mass = 237.04816) , it will recoil away as the particle leaves.
Determine (a) the energy of the daughter product and (b) the energy
of the particle (atomic mass = 4.002603 u). Assume that the energy
of each particle is kinetic energy, and ignore any other small
amounts of energy that might be carried away by other emissions. In
addition,...
