A glass with the composition CdO-SiO2-B2O3 forms a neutron absorbing glass which is quite stable against moisture attack and divitrification and are good slow neutron absorbers

Which is not a sound absorbing material thermocole ground glass glass wool jute matte?

Ground glass is not a sound-absorbing material. Thermocole, glass wool, jute, and matte are commonly used for absorbing sound due to their dense and fibrous structures that help reduce noise levels.


What is the uses of element in boron?

Boron has a variety of uses, including as a dopant in semiconductors, in the production of glass and ceramics, and as a component in insecticides and herbicides. It is also used in nuclear reactors and as a neutron-absorbing material in some shielding applications.

When a neutron enters a fissionable nucleus its entire momentum is transferred to the nucleus Does this accelerate the remaining nucleus or is the momentum transformed somehow?

Conservation of momentum means that the speed of the nucleus (the combined nucleus, after absorbing the neutron), must change, yes.


How are blackholes detected by astronomers?

Yes, they may be inferred by the bending of light rays in their vicinity. And the creation of the extraordinarily energetic Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) may be due to one Black Hole absorbing another. Or at least one neutron star absorbing another.

What frequencies of visibile light are transmitted through a piece of glass if the glass appears black?

When a piece of glass appears black, it is likely absorbing all visible light frequencies rather than transmitting them. This could be due to impurities in the glass that absorb light or a particular treatment on the surface of the glass.
