If the average energy released in a fission event is 208 mev, find the total number of fission events required to operate a 120-w lightbulb for 1.5 h.

The number of fission are equal to 1.947 x 10¹⁶

Explanation:

Energy of one fission=208*1.6*10⁻¹³ Joule.

Power of the bulb=120 Watts.

Time t in seconds = 1.5h=5400 seconds

Total energy E=Power* time=120*5400=64.8 x 10⁴ Joule.

Number of fissions N= total energy / energy for one fission

=(64.8 x 10⁴)/(208x1.6x10⁻¹³)

=1.947 x 10¹⁶

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
