Question:
Consider a neutron transmission experiment through a \({ }^{232} \mathrm{Th}\) foil of thickness \(0.001 \mathrm{~cm}\). The neutron beam is mono-energetic with a certain energy. Density of the material of the foil is \(12 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}\). If \(90 \%\) of the incident neutrons are lost on transit through the foil, find the total cross-section of \({ }^{232} \mathrm{Th}\) at that energy.

During my undergraduate i used to participate as TA (Teaching Assistant) in several electronics and computers subject. I'm passionate about learning Computer Science as my bachelors are in Electronics but i learnt most of the Computer Science subjects on my own which Machine Learning also. At Present, i'm a working professional pursuing my career as a Machine Learning Engineer and i want to help others learn during my free hours, that's all the motivation behind giving tuition. To be frank i have no prior experience of tutoring but i have solved problems on opensource platforms like StackOverflow and github. ~Thanks
