A neutron collided elastically with the nucleus of the a carbon atom at rest . Show that the neutron lost 0.284 part of its initial kinetic energy .

In a nuclear reactor a neutron of high speed (typically 10^(7) ms^(-1) ) must be slowed to 10^(3) ms^(-1) so that it can have a high probability of interacting with isotope {:(235),(92):}U and causing it to fission. Show that a neutron can lose most of its kinetic energy in an elastic collision with a light nuclet like deuterium or carbon which has a mass of only a few times the neutron mass. The material making up the light nuclet, usually heavy water (D_(2)O) or graphite, is called a moderator.

    At a given temperature, the reaction, A(g)hArr 2N(g) , is in equilibrium in a closed flask. At the same temperature, the reaction c(g)hArr D(g)+E(g) is in equilibrium in an another closed flask. Values of equilibrium constants of these two reactions are K_(p1) and K_(p2) respectively and the total pressures of the equilibrium mixtures are P_1 and P_2 respectively. If K_(p1) : K_(p2) = 1 : 4 and P_1 : P_2 = 1 : 4 then the ratio of degree of dissociation of A(g) and C(g) are ( assume the degrees of dissociation of both are very small compared to 1)-
