+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.I'm confused too
Elastic collision has no loss of ke right
net loss*
Ah.
Just apply momentum conservation na
So the fractional loss is with regards to the neutron only?
Like a pool shot. Energy is transferred slowing the cue ball
Oh I see.
Thanks a lot sir.
And pool is a bad example cos all masses are nearly the same, here the masses are different :)
but pool is just used as an introductory thingy :D
