Suppose that a fission neutron, emitted with energy of 2 Mev, slows down to an energy of 1 rev as a result of successive collisions in a moderator. How many collisions are required if the moderator is • Hydrogen • Graphite (C12) If u238 is used, would you expect more or less please explain your answer.
Estimate the probability that a 100-eV neutron will penetrate a 1 cm 10B (Boron-10) shield and produce a fission in a 1-mm 239Pu foil (density 18.5 g cm–3) behind it. Neglect energy loss of the neutron due to elastic scattering.
4. A neutron with a kinetic energy of 2 MeV undergoes a series of elastic scattering collisions with 1°F to slow down to a kinetic energy of 0.025 eV. For this to occur, determine (a) the minimum number of collisions, and (b) the mean number of collisions.
1. Luminescence is because of Photons emitted while excited electrons drop down I Knocking out of electrons by photons Photons stimulated by photons O All 2. Internal conversion is where... The spin of an excited electron reverses, changing the state of the molecule (from singlet state to triplet state or vice versa) A molecule converts its excess energy to light, and emits a photon A molecule converts excess electronic energy to vibrational energy 3.

(1 point) Consider two interconnected tanks as shown in the figure above. Tank 1 initial contains 10 L (liters) of water and 355 g of salt, while tank 2 initially contains 90 L of water and 345 g of salt. Water containing 40 g/L of salt is poured into tank1 at a rate of 4 L/min while the mixture flowing into tank 2 contains a salt concentration of 20 g/L of salt and is flowing at the rate of 1...
