Question 1

Approximately how fast is an ion of helium moving if it is in a plasma with a temperature of 108 K? m(He) = 4.002 603 u and u = 1.66 × 1027 kg.

106 m/s

104 m/s

102 m/s

10 m/s

1 m/s


Question 2

Approximately how much uranium (in kg) must undergo fission per day to provide 1 000 MW of power? (Assume an efficiency of 30%). The nuclear reaction is

.


m(n) = 1.008 665 u
m(U) = 235.043 915 u
m(Ba) = 140.913 9 u
m(Kr) = 91.897 3 u
