The average energy released per fission for the nucleus of $_{92}^{235} U$ is $190 \text{ MeV}$. When all the atoms of $47 \text{ g}$ pure $_{92}^{235} U$ undergo fission process,the energy released is $\alpha \times 10^{23} \text{ MeV}$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . . . . . . (Avogadro Number $= 6 \times 10^{23} \text{ per mole}$)

The isotope ${}_{5}^{12}B$ having a mass $12.014 \text{ u}$ undergoes $\beta$-decay to ${}_{6}^{12}C$. ${}_{6}^{12}C$ has an excited state of the nucleus $({}_{6}^{12}C^*)$ at $4.041 \text{ MeV}$ above its ground state. If ${}_{5}^{12}B$ decays to ${}_{6}^{12}C^*$, the maximum kinetic energy of the $\beta$-particle in units of $\text{MeV}$ is ($1 \text{ u} = 931.5 \text{ MeV}/c^2$, where $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum).
