Undergrad Why prompt neutron gets less share of energy (fission)
why neutron get so little energy in fission reaction as compare to fission fragments? according to formula Em=Ef(M)/(m+M) m=mass of small fragment M= mass of relatively big fragment Ef=fission energy by the same logic neutron should get highest share due to their lower mass. i am missing...- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
thanks for the directions. but from where prompt neutron get energy? is it not come from the fission of the neucleus? if neutron get energy share from the fission energy then it should get very high energy. if it not then please clear the point. or refer me a good link about that monstrous energy.- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
it was just a typo Ef=1/2m(vm)^2+1/2M(vM)^2 (vm=velocity of mass m, vM=velocity of mass M) it is a very famous derivation.- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
sorry, typing mistake. it actually is Ef=1/2m(vm)^2+1/2M(vM)^2 (vm=velocity of mass m)- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
i didn't assumed same velocities. i assumed same momentum. which is allowed by law of conservation of momentum- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
lighter mass=m heavier mass=M energy of mass m=Em energy of mass M= EM fission energy=Ef law of conservation of energy Ef=1/2m(vm)^2+1/2M(vm)^2 (vm=velocity of mass m) Ef=(1/2m^2(vm)^2)/m+(1/2M^2(vM)^2)/M law of conservation of momentum M(vM)=m(vm) so Ef=(1/2m^2(vm)^2)/m+(1/2m^2(vm)^2)/m...- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
sir! according to that formula lower mass should get more energy. neutron is lighter than the fissioned fragments. then why it gets less energy? thanks- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
i already mentioned there is something to do with mass (hence momentum). i know the fissioned nuclei and neutron can scatter at different angles after fission. and so we get continious spectrum. but my question is why neutron get less energy. as if neutron's mass is low it can get high speed to...- Magnetic Boy

Energy of neutron in fission reaction
Homework Statement when fission occurs why neutron get less energy as compare to the daughter nuclei? i need both physical and mathematical explanation. Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution i think it is due to the small mass of neutron. but i am not sure as it is not satisfactory. a...- Magnetic Boy

Fraction of lost energy in compton scattering
Thanks. So the answer is "none of these". Now i am sure. Some one answered it 50%. And i were really confused about that.- Magnetic Boy

Fraction of lost energy in compton scattering
QUOTE="Delta², post: 5517626, member: 189563"]Frequency and Energy of photon also are related E=hf where h plank's constant. I know it very well. But look at the question. Only angle of scattering is given. Does not it mean that we cannot find fraction of lost energy? I just want to confirm...- Magnetic Boy
