NEET Physics Nuclear Fusion Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Coulomb barrier height | (i) 10^8 K |
| (b) Energy requirement for fusion | (ii) Plasma state |
| (c) Temperature for proton gas | (iii) 400 keV |
| (d) Fusion product of deuterons | (iv) Triton and proton |
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Coulomb barrier height for two protons is approximately 400 keV, and for fusion to occur, sufficient energy must be provided to overcome this barrier. Additionally, the temperature required for the fuel in controlled fusion reactors is around 10^8 K, where the state of matter becomes plasma. The fusion of deuterons leads to the creation of a triton and a proton.
