The nucleus $_{92}U^{234}$ splits exactly in half in a fission reaction in which two neutrons are released. The resultant nuclei are

In the nuclear fusion reaction ${ }_1 H^2+{ }_1 H^3 \rightarrow{ }_2 He^4+n$, if the repulsive potential energy between the two nuclei is $2.07 \times 10^{-14} \,J$, then the temperature at which the gases must be heated to initiate the reaction is (Boltzmann constant $k = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \,JK^{-1}$).

For nuclei with mass number close to $119$ and $238$, the binding energies per nucleon are approximately $7.6 \text{ MeV}$ and $8.6 \text{ MeV}$ respectively. If a nucleus of mass number $238$ breaks into two nuclei of nearly equal masses, what will be the approximate amount of energy released in the process of fission (in $\text{ MeV}$)?

If $200 \, MeV$ of energy is released per fission,how many fissions per second must occur in a $1000 \, kW$ reactor?
