The Sun radiates energy continuously and maintains its brightness because:

The fission of a $_{92}U^{235}$ nucleus releases $200 \, MeV$ of energy. Find the rate of fission of $_{92}U^{235}$ required to operate a reactor at a constant power of $5 \, W$.

$A$ nuclear reactor generates power by fission of ${}_{92}U^{235}$ into two equal fragments of ${}_{46}Pd^{116}$ with the emission of two $\gamma$-rays of $5.2 \text{ MeV}$ each and three neutrons. The average binding energies per nucleon of ${}_{92}U^{235}$ and ${}_{46}Pd^{116}$ are $7.2 \text{ MeV}$ and $8.2 \text{ MeV}$ respectively. The usable energy released per fission event is ......... $\text{MeV}$.

In an $\alpha -$ decay,the kinetic energy of the $\alpha -$ particle is $48 \ MeV$ and the $Q$ value of the reaction is $50 \ MeV$. The mass number of the mother nucleus is (assume that the daughter nucleus is in the ground state).

$A$ $\pi^0$ meson at rest decays into $2$ $\gamma$ rays: $\pi^0 \to \gamma + \gamma$. Which of the following must happen?

Assertion : It is not possible to use ${}^{35}Cl$ as the fuel for fusion energy.
Reason : The binding energy of ${}^{35}Cl$ is too small.
