The fission of uranium nuclei in a nuclear reactor produces high speed neutrons. Before a neutron can trigger additional fissions, it has to be slowed down by collisions with carbon nuclei in the moderator of the reactor. Suppose a neutron with mass of 1.0u travelling at 2.0x10^7m/s undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a carbon nucleus with mass of 12u initially at rest. Calculate the velocities of the neutron and carbon after the collision.

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?
