in gama decay there is no change in mass number...

initially nucleous was at rest ,due to internal forces it will move after giving a gamma photon..

so we can apply conservation of momentam here

final momentam = initial momentam = 0

P(gamma photon) + P(nucleous) = 0 .......................1

energy of photon = 7Mev

p(photon) = E/c (c is speed of light , E =7Mev (given) )

p(nucleous) = -E/c ( from eq 1)

kinetic energy = P²/2m = E²/2mc²

now put E , C & m ,u will get the 1.1Mev ans
