[20] 1estion 5 Consider the following nuclear reaction 58 64 Ni + Zn + 4x +21p (i) Determine A and Z of the nucleus X. (3) (ü) Calculate the Coulomb barriers on the left-hand side (Via) and on the right-hand side (Vgut) of this reaction. Use RB = 1.2 fm (A7/3 + A1/3). (3) (üi) Calculate the Q-value of this reaction. (iv) The Q-value of the reaction can be affected by the Coulomb barrier in the entrance and exit channels, in particular for medium and heavy-mass nuclei. For this reaction, calculate the correction to the Q-value, Qcorr = Q+AVB (4)
