200 MeV of energy is released when an atom of ""_(92)U^(235) undergoes nuclear fission. A nuclear reactor using ""_(92)U^(235) has an output of 800 MW. How many uranium atoms does it consume in one day? What mass of uranium does it consume each day?

Two other possible ways by which .^(235)U can undergo fission when bombarded with a neutron are (1) by the release of .^(140)Xe and .^(94)Sr as fission fragments and (2) by the release of .^(132)Sn and .^(101)Mo as fission fragments. In each case, neutrons are also released. Find the number of neutrons released in each of these events.

If 200 MeV of energy is released in the fission of 1 nucleus of ._(92)U^(235) , the number of nuclei that undergo fission to produce energy of 10 kWh in 1 s is
