AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of a neutron colliding with a hydrogen atom, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Initial Conditions We have a neutron with a kinetic energy of 12.5 eV colliding with a hydrogen atom that is initially at rest. The mass difference between the neutron and the hydrogen atom is neglected. ### Step 2: Convert Kinetic Energy to Velocity The kinetic energy (KE) of the neutron can be expressed in terms of its mass (m) and velocity (v) using the formula: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \] ...
