The commercial power generation is done using the nuclear fission reaction.

Answer: option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

The nuclear fission reaction is the reaction in the nucleus where the nucleus is divided into smaller parts. It is apparent from the name itself as it’s a destructive reaction where the nucleus splits.

This splitting of the nucleus occurs as a result of the heavy bombardment done over the atom through which the nucleus splits. The splitting is done into many parts of a smaller size.

Answer:

1 joule = 0.737 foot-pound

Joule is the unit of work.

1 J = 1 N·m

In SI units

1 J = 1 kg· m/s²

0.737 foot-pound is the amount of work to raise 0.737 pounds one foot or raising one pound to 0.737 ft.

Calculate the approximate volume of a uranium nucleus, 23592u. (you can ignore the mass defect in this calculation and simply ta

tester [92]

Radius of nuclei is given by formula

$R = R_oA^{1/3}$

now we can say volume of the nuclei is given as

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi R_o^3* A$

now the density is given as

density = mass / volume

mass of nuclei = mass of neutron + mass of protons

$m = z*m_p + (A- z)*m_n$

$m_p = m_n = 1.008u$

$m = A*1.008u$

Now density is given as

$\rho = \frac{A*1.008u}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R_0^3* A}$

here we know that

$R_0$ = 1.2 fm

$\rho = \frac{1.008u}{\frac{4}{3}\pi*(1.2*10^{-15})^3}$

$\rho = 2.31 * 10^{17} kg/m^3$

So from above we can say that density of all nuclei is almost same.
