Neutrons have a proper half-life of 610 seconds. it has been theorized that extremely energetic neutrons could be produced by collisions of ultra-energetic protons (accelerated by an unknown mechanism) with nuclei. for a collection of neutrons to reach earth with 50% surviving, how close to the speed of light must their velocity be (i. e., what is c-vin m/s) if they are created near sagittarius a (black hole at the center of our galaxy), 25,000 light-years distant? hint: the yfac- tor is extremely large so use an approximation of b for large y.

The magnitude of the amount of energy released by burning a fuel source, measured in energy per unit mass, is called its fuel value. note that the fuel value is the negative of the isobaric specific heat of combustion for the fuel. if all the energy obtained from burning 1.23 pounds of butane with a fuel value of 10.85 kcal/g is used to heat 128.0 kg of water at an initial temperature of 18.3 °c, what is the final temperature? note that 1 lb = 453.6 g.
