Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
If a nuclear reactor initially has 1 kg of uranium-235 and 0.5 kg of plutonium-239, how much energy is released if all the nuclei undergo fission? (U-235 releases 200 MeV and Pu-239 releases 180 MeV per fission.)
💡 Hint: Convert mass to number of nuclei and multiply by energy release.
Question 2
Discuss the implications for radioactive waste management when fission products decay over time. What considerations should be taken into account?
💡 Hint: Think about long-term storage solutions and safety measures.
