For the nuclear reaction:
The blank space can be filled by:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Fusion reaction takes place at a higher temperature because:
1. | atoms get ionized at high temperatures. |
2. | kinetic energy is high enough to overcome the Coulomb repulsion between nuclei. |
3. | molecules break up at a high temperature. |
4. | nuclei break up at a high temperature. |
Which of the following is used as a moderator in nuclear reactors?
1. Plutonium
2. Cadmium
3. Heavy water
4. Uranium
If in nuclear reactor using U235 as fuel, the power output is 4.8 MW, the number of fissions per second is:
(Energy released per fission of U235 = 200 MeV watts, 1 eV = 1.6 X 10–19 J)
1. 1.5×1017
2. 3×1019
3. 1.5×1025
4. 3×1025
