The enegry released per fission of .^(235)u is nearly

If the power of nuclear reactor is 100 watt then rate of nuclear fission is -

The amount of U^(235) to be fissioned to operate 10 kW nuclear reactor is

A 1000 MW fission reactor consumes half of its fuel in 5.00y. How much ._92U^(235) did it contain initally? Assume that the reactor operates 80% of the time and that all the energy generated arises form the fission of ._92U^(235) and that this nuclide is consumed by the fission process.

Assuming that about 200 MeV of energy is released per fission of ._(92)U^(235) nuceli, the mass of U^(235) consumed per day in a fission ractor of power 1 megawatt will be approximately .

10^14 fissions per second are taking place in a nuclear reactor having efficiency 40% . The energy released per fission is 250MeV. The power output of the reactor is

" If "n" is the number of fissions per second and "E" is the energy released per fission then power of nuclear reactor is "
