An atomic power nuclear reactor can deliver 300 MW. The energy released due to fission of each nucleus of uranium atom U 235 is 170 MeV. The number of uranium atoms fissioned per hour will be (1) 4 × 1022 (2) 30 × 1022 (3) 10 × 1020 (4) 5 × 1015

An atomic power nuclear reactor can deliver 300 MW. The energy released due to fission of each nucleus of
uranium atom U ²³⁵ is 170 MeV. The number of uranium atoms fissioned per hour will be
(1) 4 × 10²² (2) 30 × 10²²(3) 10 × 10²⁰ (4) 5 × 10¹⁵
