    When\[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] undergoes fission 0.1% of its original mass is changed into energy. How much energy is released if 1 kg of \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] undergoes fission?

    A) \[9\times {{10}^{10}}J\]               

    B) \[9\times {{10}^{12}}J\]

    C) \[9\times {{10}^{11}}J\]               

    D)  \[9\times {{10}^{10}}J\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Mass of \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] is changed into energy \[=0.1%\] from 1 kg of \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] mass converting into energy is \[m=\frac{0.1}{100}\times 1={{10}^{-3}}kg\] From Einstein equation \[E=m{{c}^{2}}\] Hence, energy \[E={{10}^{-3}}\times {{\left( 3\times {{10}^{8}} \right)}^{2}}\] \[=9\times {{10}^{13}}J\]
