← ScienceWhich outcome results when radioactive material experiences neutron bombardment?
A)Induced fission releases significant energy.✓
B)Alpha decay path gets immediately blocked.
C)Binding energy rapidly increases overall.
D)Half-life value becomes significantly extended.
💡 Explanation
Bombarding radioactive nuclides with neutrons can cause them to undergo induced fission, since the added neutron destabilizes the nucleus, therefore resulting in nuclear splitting and releases energy, rather than other decay effects.
