Physics, asked by aryanduggal123, 9 months ago

Assertion (A) : In the process of nuclear fission, the amount of nuclear
energy generated by the fission of an atom of uranium is so tremendous that
it produces 10 million times the energy produced by the combustion of an
atom of carbon from coal.
Reason (R) : The nucleus of a heavy atom such as uranium, when
bombarded with low energy neutrons, splits apart into lighter nuclei. The
mass difference between the original nucleus and the product nuclei gets
converted to tremendous energy.

Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Given:

Assertion (A)  and Reason (R)

To find:

Where the Assertion (A)  and Reason (R) are true or falls.

Explanation:

Nuclear energy :

  • It is a kind of non-conventional source of energy.        
  • It can be tracked by a process called nuclear fission.
  • It can be split into a lighter nuclei, when bombarded with low-energy neutrons.      
  • After this process, a large amount of energy is released.
  • If the mass of the original nucleus is greater than the sum of the masses of the individual products.
  • The fission of an atom of uranium.
  • For example, produces 10 million times the energy produced by the combustion of an atom of carbon from coal.
  • A nuclear reactor is designed for electric power generation.

So from above discussion we can conclude that,                  

Assertion (A)  and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is correct explanation of Assertion (A).
