An atomic power nuclear reactor can deliver `300 MW`. The energy released due to fission of each nucleus of uranium atom `U^238` is `170 MeV`. The number of uranium atoms fissioned per hour will be.

A

`30xx10^25`

B

`4xx10^22`

C

`10xx10^20`

D

`5xx10^15`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`therefore ` Number of atoms per sec
Number of atoms per hour = `1.02xx10^19xx3600=3.97xx10^22`
