The half life of neutron is 693 seconds. What fraction of neutrons will decay when a beam of neutrons, having kinetic energy of 0.084 \(\mathrm{eV}\), travells a distance of \(1 \mathrm{~km}\) ? (mass of neutron \(=1.68 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}\), and \(\ln 2=0.693\) )

  1. A \(0.25 \times 10^{\wedge}-5\)
  2. B \(0.5 \times 10^{\wedge}-5\)
  3. C \(0.8 \times 10^{\wedge}-5\)
  4. D \(10^{\wedge}-5\)
Verified Solution
