Here,
energy released per fission = 173 MeV
energy released per fission = 173 * 1.602 *10^-19 * 1 *10^6
energy released per fission = 2.77 *10^-11 J
Number of reaction per sec = 160 *10^6/(2.77 *10^-11)
Number of reaction per sec = 5.77 *10^18 1/s
the Number of reaction per sec is 5.77 *1018 1/s
Assuming a release of 173 MeV per fission reaction, calculate how many reactions must occur per...

4. a. Assume all the energy in a nuclear reactor comes from the fission of 239Pu (assume 200 MeV/fission). How many fissions per second are required to maintain a power level of 3400 MW? b. How many grams per day are fissioned in this reactor?
How many fusion reactions per second must be sustained to operate a D–T fusion power plant that outputs 1100 MW, operating at 33% efficiency? (Each D–T fusion reaction releases about 20 MeV.) Give answer in reactions per second
: Assuming 200 MeV per fission and 25000 BTU/short ton of energy from Coal, calculate the mass of natural uranium and mass of coal needed to generate 1000 MWe of power. Assume thermal efficiency of 30%.
How many fissions take place per second in a 190-MW reactor? Assume 200 MeV is released per fission.
3. A fission chain reaction. a. A neutron can cause 235U to fission, producing two daughter nuclei (tin and molybdenum) and three more neutrons. These three neutrons can then, in turn, cause three more 235U nuclei to split. One typical reaction is summarized as follows: n+25131Sn + 102Mo +3 n Find the energy released in this process (in MeV), given that MC3SU) 235.0439 u; M(3Sn) 130.9169 u; M(102Mo)-101.9103 u. b. Lise Meitner's work in 1938 predicted that the fission of...
Suppose that, in the absence of a catalyst, a certain biochemical reaction occurs x times per second at normal body temperature (37 °C). In order to be physiologically useful, the reaction needs to occur 2000 times faster than when it is uncatalyzed.

oart A and B please ission Reactions In a nuclear fission reaction a heavy nucleus divides to form smaller nuclei and one or more neutrons. Many nuclei can undergo fission, but the fission reactions of uranium-235 and plutonium-239 are the principal ones that generate energy in nuclear power plants. This problem deals with balancing the fission reaction of the uranium-235 isotope as it undergoes bombardment from a neutron 14 of 36 > Review Constants 1 Periodic Table When a U...
