A radio nuclide with disintegration constant `lambda` is produced in a reactor at a constant rate `alpha` nuclei per second. During each decay energy `E_0` is released. `20%` of this energy is utilized in increasing the temperature of water. Find the increase in temperature of `m` mass of water in time `t`. Specific heat of water is `s`. Assume that there is no loss of energy through water surface.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`0.2E_(0)([alphat-(alpha)/(lamda)(1-e^(-lamdat))])/(ms)`
