A linear accelerator works by having a magnet at the end of the accelerator. If the particle is neutral then it will not be attracted to the magnet and therefore nothing will happen, as in the case of a neutron.

What is the surprising effect of the neutron bomb?

A neutron bomb, or enhanced radiation weapon (ERW), is a type of tactical nuclear weapon designed specifically to release a large portion of its energy as energetic neutron radiation rather than explosive energy. Neutron bomb would use nuclear fusion, but in a different way. The detonation of a neutron bomb would still produce an explosion, but one much smaller than a standard nuclear weapon's. The main effect of a neutron bomb would be the release of high-energy neutrons that would take lives far beyond the blast area. The result: fewer buildings, cars, tanks, roads, highways and other structures destroyed.


When withdrawals exceed injections national income will do what?

When planned withdrawals are more than planned injections, there is too little aggregate demand. I'm no economics expert so i don't know whether this would lead to a downward mutipler or a negative accelerator effect. Withdrawals are savings, taxes and imports and it seems to me that if savings increase, there would be a negative accelerator effect, but if imports increase, there would be a downward multiplier, but don't take my word for it.


Why is there an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars?

There is an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars because if the neutron star is too massive, neutrons would be crushed by the gravity of the neutron star, and the neutron star would collapse into a black hole.


Would a neutron be deflected by a maagnetic field why or why not?

Since a neutron has no charge, it would not be deflected by a magnetic field.


What effect do neutron stars and pulsars have on Earth?

Hardly any - they are very far away. However, a supernova (which would come before a neutron star) could have catastrophic effects on Earth, if it were to happen in our neighborhood (up to a few thousand light years!).


What is the electrically neutral particle in the nucleus called?

Neutron is neutral Proton has a positive charge Electron has a negative charge


Would a steering wheel be classified as an accelerator?

yes


What would happen if you pressed the brake and accelerator in a car?

you would spin in a circle


What would have more of an effect on the mass of an alumnium atom removing 10 electrons or 1 neutron?

ten electrons. If u look on the worksheet it says that neutrons are particles with no charge


How many moons are around a neutron star?

There are no moons around a neutron star. A large, spherical body orbiting a neutron star would be considered a planet.


What is a proton and neutron added together?

A proton and a neutron added together would be Deuterium without an electron.


What a neutron have a charge?

They don't really have a charge so it would be zero or no charge.
