A nuclear power plant generates a total of 3 GW of power at an efficiency of 33%. The nuclear reactor has a recoverable energy per fission of 210 MeV. Approximately 65% of the plant's power comes from fissions in 235U, the remainder from fissions in plutonium, 239Pu. calculate: (a) the net electric power output, (b) the rate of fission events (per second) in the reactor core, (c) the mass of 235U used up in one year (hint: every fission event consumes one 235U nucleus and in the reactor core about 1.0 (1020) nuclei of U 235 are consumed every second. (d) If the plant were operated at full power for 1 year, how many
