What is nuclear energy?

Suppose a ${ }_{88}^{226} Ra$ nucleus at rest and in the ground state undergoes $\alpha$-decay to a ${ }_{86}^{222} Rn$ nucleus in its excited state. The kinetic energy of the emitted $\alpha$ particle is found to be $4.44 \text{ MeV}$. The ${ }_{86}^{222} Rn$ nucleus then goes to its ground state by $\gamma$-decay. The energy of the emitted $\gamma$-photon is . . . . . . . $\text{keV}$.
[Given: atomic mass of ${ }_{88}^{226} Ra = 226.005 \text{ u}$,atomic mass of ${ }_{86}^{222} Rn = 222.000 \text{ u}$,atomic mass of $\alpha$ particle $= 4.000 \text{ u}$,$1 \text{ u} = 931 \text{ MeV}/c^2$]

Which one of the following nuclear reactions is a source of energy in the sun?

On bombarding $U^{235}$ by slow neutrons,$200 \text{ MeV}$ of energy is released. If the power output of an atomic reactor is $1.6 \text{ MW}$,then the rate of fission will be:

If the binding energy per nucleon of deuteron $({ }_1 H^2)$ is $1.15 \text{ MeV}$ and an $\alpha$-particle has a binding energy of $7.1 \text{ MeV}$ per nucleon,then the energy released per nucleon in the given reaction is ${ }_1 H^2 + { }_1 H^2 \rightarrow { }_2 He^4 + Q$. (in $\text{ MeV}$)
