The energy liberated per nuclear fission is $200 \; MeV$. If $10^{20}$ fissions occur per second,the amount of power produced will be:
- A$32 \times 10^8 \; W$
- B$16 \times 10^8 \; W$
- C$5 \times 10^{11} \; W$
- D$2 \times 10^{22} \; W$

View SolutionThe energy released by the fission of one uranium atom is $200 MeV$. The number of fissions per second required to produce $3.2 W$ of power is (Take $1 eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} J$).
The operation of a nuclear reactor is said to be critical when the value of the neutron multiplication factor $K$ is:
Each nuclear fission of ${}^{235}U$ releases $200 \text{ MeV}$ of energy. If a reactor generates $1 \text{ MW}$ power,then the rate of fission in the reactor is:
