Fusion Reactors

Inside the core of nuclear fusion reactor, eventually the gas changes to plasma. It is due to

Discuss three major problems associated with the development of a controlled fusion reactor.

Choose the WRONG statement. A thermonuclear fusion reactor is better than a fission reactor for the following reasons:

Why would a fusion reactor produces less radiactive waste than a fission reactor?

In a hypothetical nuclear fusion reactor, the fuel is deuterium gas at a temperature of 7 xx 10^8 K. If this gas could be used to operate a Carnot engine with T_L = 50^@ C , what would be the engine's efficiency? Take both temperatures to be exact and report your answer to eight significant figures.
