Radioactive ._27^60Co is transformed into stable ._28^60Ni by emitting two gamma-rays of energies

Answer»

1.33 MeV and 1.17 MeV in succession
1.17 MeV and 1.33 MeV in succession
1.37 MeV and 1.13 MeV in succession
1.13 MeV and 1.37 MeV in succession

Solution :The successive EMISSION of gamma RAYS of energies 1.17 MeV and 1.33 MeV from the de-excitation of `._28^60Ni` NUCLEI formed from `beta`-decay of `._27^60Co`. This process is shown in the figure through an energy LEVEL diagram .
