Q. Consider the following statements with reference to Neutrinos:
1.Neutrinos are electrically neutral elementary particles.
2.They interact only through the weak nuclear force and gravity, enabling them to pass through ordinary matter with very little interaction.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Answer: C
Notes:
Explanation: Both 1 and 2
Statement 1 is correct: Neutrinos are electrically neutral elementary particles with an extremely small mass.
Statement 2 is correct: They interact via the weak nuclear force and gravity, making them capable of passing through vast amounts of matter with minimal interaction. They are produced in the Sun, supernovae, nuclear reactors, and cosmic-ray interactions.
