[UPSC CSE 1987] Nuclear Physics (Q219, 20M)

Interpret the nuclear process described by the equation _{92}U^{235} + _{0}n^{1} \rightarrow _{92}n^{236} \rightarrow _{56}Ba^{141} + _{36}Kr^{92} + 3 _{0}n^{1} + Q The products of this kind of reaction vary widely, but the average Q is found to be 180 MeV. Compute the consumption rate of U^{235} per year if power generation is to be an average 100 MW. (Take efficiency = 1).
