At the point of fission, a nucleus of 235U that has 92 protons is divided into two smaller spheres, each of which has 46 protons and a radius of 5.74 ✕ 10-15 m. What is the magnitude of the repulsive force pushing these two spheres apart? N
Activity 27-4. Nuclear fission (Accompanies Section 27-4] 1 A uranium nucleus (235U) absorbs a neutron. The result is a uranium nucleus (236U) in an excited state. 3 The excited uranium nucleus fissions into two smaller, more tightly bound nuclei... ...as well as a few neutrons. These can trigger the fission of other 235U nuclei. 3 neutrons Neutron + 2350 236U 134 Te 9976 Z = 0 protons Z = 92 protons N = 1 neutron N = 143 neutrons A=Z+N...
