A liquid hydrogen target of volume 10 4 m 3 and density 71 kg/m 3 is exposed

Question:

A liquid hydrogen target of volume 10⁻⁴ m³ and density 71 kg/m³ is exposed to a wide uniform mono energetic beam of negative pions of flux 10⁷ particles/(m² s) and the reaction π⁻p → K⁰Λ is observed. If the cross-section for this reaction is 0.4 mb, what is the rate of production of Λ particles?
