Answer» Solution :No. of nuclei in the first generation=No. of nuclei INITIALLY`=N_(0)` `N_(0)` in the second generation`=N_(0)XX` multiplication factor `=N_(0).k` `N_(0)` in the `3rd` generation `=N_(0).k.k=N_(0)k^(2)` `N_(0)` in the nth generation `=N_(0)k^(N-1)` SUBSTITUTION gives `1.25xx10^(5)` neutrons |
