Problem

A nuclear power plant delivers a constant electrical output of

1.2\,\text{GW}

for a full day (

24\,\text{h}

). Estimate the mass that must be converted into energy inside the reactor during this period. a)

1.0\times10^{-1}\,\text{kg}

3.5\times10^{-3}\,\text{kg}

1.2\times10^{-3}\,\text{kg}

1.2\times10^{-6}\,\text{kg}
