Question

cosh 50% Part (a) Calculate the energy, in J, released by the fusion of a 1.00-kg mixture of deuterium and tritium, which produces helium. There are equal numbers of deuterium and tritium nuclei in the mixture. $3 50% Part (b) If this process takes place continuously over a period of a year, what is the average power output in MW?

Explanation / Answer

Time in 1 year = 365 * 24 * 3600 s. = 3.16*107s.

The average output power generated = Energy released/Time = (3.38*1014)/(3.16*107) W= 10.7 MW.
