0A heavy nucleus splits into lighter nuclei which are more stable the original heavy nucleus. When a heavy nucleus like uranium is bombarded by slow moving neutrons, it breaks into two parts releasing large amount of energy. The typical fission reaction of Uranium.
\( { }_{92} \mathrm{U}^{235}+{ }_{0} n^{1} \rightarrow{ }_{56} \mathrm{Ba}^{141}+{ }_{36} \mathrm{Kr}^{92}+3{ }_{0} n^{1}+200 \mathrm{MeV} \)
The fission \( { }_{92} \mathrm{U}^{235} \) approximately released 200 MeV of energy.
If \( 200 \mathrm{MeV} \) energy is released in the fission of a single nucleus of \( { }^{235}{ }_{92} \mathrm{U} \), the fission which are required to produce a power of \( 1 \mathrm{~kW} \) is:
(A) \( 3.125 \times 10^{13} \)
(B) \( 1.52 \times 10^{6} \)
(C) \( 3.125 \times 10^{12} \)
(D) \( 3.125 \times 10^{14} \)
