Fast moving neutrons are produce due to fission of fissile materias.

Neutron absorbed is good and the energy is sufficient for that it is unstable elment.
Sabari said:   1 decade ago
Suppose the nitrogen nucleus and fast neutrons are collision, what will happen?
Vivek said:   1 decade ago
Fast moving neutron have a sufficient energy to penetrate the nitrogen nucleus and absorbedby it. Hence it make a intermdiate unstable element finallyit gives carbon-14 and a electron.
