Question

how much mass is converted into energy per day in tarapur neucler power plant operated at 10 power 7 kilowalt​

Answer 1

Answer:

Power produced

P = 10^7 kW = 10^10 J/s

Time, t = 1 day=24×60×60 s

Energy produced per day, E = Px t =10^10 J/s x 864×10^2 s

mass equivalence relation

E = mc^2 , therefore

mass = m = E/c^2 = {10^10 x 864×10^2 J} / {3x 10^8}^2

= 9.6 x 10^-3 kg.
