◦

I₀e^−μx.

◦

I₀e^μ^x.

◦

I₀(e^−μx− 1).

◦

I₀(e^μ^x− 1).

◦

I₀(1 −e^−μx).

Question 2

When a fast neutron collides with a hydrogen or deuterium nucleus, the most likely result is that

◦

the neutron has an appreciable gain in kinetic energy, the gain being greatest for head-on collisions.

◦

the neutron has an appreciable gain in kinetic energy, the gain being greatest for oblique collisions.

◦

the neutron has an appreciable loss in kinetic energy, the loss being greatest for head-on collisions.

◦

the neutron has an appreciable loss in kinetic energy, the loss being greatest for oblique collisions.

◦

the neutron is absorbed by the hydrogen or deuterium nucleus.
