A

(a)If kinetic energy of the neutron is less than `13.6 eV` collision must be elastic

B

(b)If kinetic enegfy of the neutron is less than `13.6 eV` collision must be inelastic

C

(c)Inelastic collision may be take place only when initial kinetic energy iof neutron is greater than `20.4 eV`

D

(d)Perfectly inelcastic collision can not take place

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
