Express your answer using four significant figures. MeV
Solution
10 Ne^23 ---->Â Â 11 Na ^23 + -1 e ^0
m1= 22.9945 u
m2= 22.989770 u
? m= m1-m2
?m= 0.00473u
Maximum kinetic energy will be
KE max= ( 0.00473) ( 931.5 MeV) = 4.4 Me V
when the neutrino has all of the kinetic energy, the minimumkinetic energy of the electron is 0
The sum of the kinetic energy of the electron and the energyof the neutrino must be from
?m=m1-m2 , so the energy range of the neutrion willbe 0 ? Ey ? 4.4 MeV
