The neutron has a mass of 1.67 10-27 kg. Neutrons emitted in nuclear reactions can be slowed down by collisions with the matter. They are referred to as thermal neutrons after they come into thermal equilibrium with the environment. The average kinetic energy ( 3/2 kBT) of a thermal neutron is approximately 0.04 eV. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a neutron with a kinetic energy of 0.04 eV?
