The process by which a heavy nucleus splits into light nuclei is known as

For the nuclear fusion reaction ${ }_1^2 H +{ }_1^3 H \rightarrow{ }_2^4 He +{ }_0^1 n$,the temperature to which the gases must be heated is $3.7 \times 10^9 \, K$. The potential energy between two nuclei is closest to ........ $J$ (Boltzmann's constant $k = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \, J/K$).

When a sample of solid lithium is placed in a flask of hydrogen gas,the following reaction occurs: $_1^1H + {_3^7Li} \to {_2^4He} + {_2^4He}$. This statement is:

Imagine that a reactor converts all given mass into energy and that it operates at a power level of $10^9\, W$. The mass of the fuel consumed per hour in the reactor will be: (velocity of light,$c = 3 \times 10^8\, m/s$)

Which of the following nuclear fragments corresponding to nuclear fission between a neutron $\left({ }_{0}^{1} n\right)$ and a uranium isotope $\left({ }_{92}^{235} U\right)$ is correct?

Assertion : Energy is released in nuclear fission.
Reason : Total binding energy of the fission fragments is larger than the total binding energy of the parent nucleus.
