Which outcome results when accelerated tritium undergoes beta decay?

💡 Explanation

Kinetic energy decreases because beta decay emits an electron and antineutrino, sharing initial energy; therefore, the resulting Helium has less kinetic energy than originally expected, rather than increased energy, because of released neutrino.
