As regards 3He and 4He, they both have the same charge, which will be the +2 derived from the two protons. But 3He has only the one neutron, while 4He has two neutrons, and is heavier. We can use their different masses and identical charges to differentiate them in a detector. If both particles are moving away from a collision event they'll move through our detector. We include a static (fixed) magnetic field with our detector, and that way the charged particles will have to move through it. The charges of the particles cause them to create tiny magnetic fields around their path of travel (as is true of all charged particles), and this magnetic field will interact with the fixed field of our detector. The interaction of the two fields, the fixed one and the one generated by a particle, will cause the particle to be deflected and to travel in a curve. See what's coming? Both 3He and 4He will be deflected and their path of travel will curve. Their charges are the same, so the same force will be acting on each one, but the heavier 4He will be deflected less than the 3He, and we'll be able to figure out which is which. The 3He will take a path with a tighter curve than the one carved out by the 4He. Positive charges will curve in the opposite direction as negative charges, naturally. Sorting things out in the detectors can be tricky, but this in an approach that is pretty standard.

What evidence led the conclusion that earth core is made of solid iron?
The effect that Earth's gravity has on other planets and the sun can be calculated. This degree of gravity that is demonstrated points to a heavy core that is metal. Fragments of nickel-iron meteorites that are remnants of planetary collisions also indicate that other planets have a nickel-iron core.
What is fission product?
Fission products are the fragments resulting from the fission of heavy nuclids during nuclear fission process
The source of fuel for fission reactors is?
"Binding energy." Absorption of neutrons by heavy elements, and fission of those heavy elements into lighter "fragments". The "lighter fragements" have a greater net binding energy than the heavier elements did.
What is the hottest temperature matter created on earth?
The quark-gluon plasma created in collisions of gold nuclei at the RHIC accelerator at Brookhaven National Laboratory has a temperature of 4 Trillion Degrees Kelvin, 300,000 times hotter than the center of the sun. So far, it only lasts for only a few yoctoseconds (10-24 seconds) per collision
Which two bodies show evidence of heavy cratering?
The Moon and Mercury are two bodies in our solar system that show evidence of heavy cratering. Their surfaces are covered with numerous impact craters created by collisions with meteoroids and other celestial bodies over billions of years. This cratering is a result of their limited atmosphere and lack of geological processes to erase the impact scars.

How does the binding energy per nucleon vary in fission reactions?
In fission reactions, the binding energy per nucleon decreases as a heavy nucleus splits into smaller fragments. This is because the smaller fragments have a higher binding energy per nucleon compared to the original heavy nucleus.
Introduction of nuclear fission and fission?
It is a process, in which a heavy nucleus is broken down in to two or more medium heavy fragments. It is used in nuclear reactor and atom bomb.
Why is it called Nuclear Fission?
It is called nuclear fission as in this process the heavy nuclei are split into fragments (or fission products).
What is fission product?
Fission products are the fragments resulting from the fission of heavy nuclids during nuclear fission process
