Question

In a nuclear reactor, a neutron moving at speed v in the positive x-direction strikes a deuteron, which is at rest. The neutron is deflected by 90.0

In a nuclear reactor, a neutron moving at speed v in the positive x-direction strikes a deuteron, which is at rest. The neutron is deflected by 90.0 degree and moves off with speed vi/ root 3 in the positive y-direction. Find the x- and y-components of the deuteron's velocity after the collision. (The mass of the deuteron is twice the mass of the neutron. Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.) vdfx = vdfy =

Explanation / Answer

or part A the equation is v/2

for part B the equation is -v/(2sqrt(3))
