The ratio of the energy released by of hydrogen at sun by fusion process to of in the nuclear reactor by fission process is (Assume energy released per fusion is and that per fission is )
In a reactor, of fuel is fully used up in days. The energy released fission is . Given that the Avogadro number, per kilo mole and . The power output of the reactor is close to:
A neutron is emitted in a fission reactor. If it looses half of its kinetic energy in each collision with a moderator atom, how many collisions must it undergo to achieve thermal energy of ?
For nuclei with mass number close to and , the binding energies per nucleon are approximately and , respectively. If a nucleus of mass number breaks into two nuclei of nearly equal masses, what will be the approximate amount of energy released in the process of fission?
An electron, a doubly ionized helium ion and proton are having the same kinetic energy. The relation between their respective de-Broglie wavelength and is :
A nuclear fuel rod generates energy at a rate of It is in the shape of a cylinder of radius and length A coolant of specific heat flows, past it at a rate of, . The temperature rise in this coolant is approximately,
