The net neutrons produced per initial neutron accounting for all possible losses is called?(a) Bombardment(b) Half life(c) Multiplication factors(d) Covalent bondThis question was addressed to me in a job interview.This interesting question is from Atomic Structure topic in chapter Nuclear Power Plant of Energy Engineering

Answer»

The correct choice is (c) Multiplication factors

The EXPLANATION: The net neutrons produced per initial neutron accounting for all possible LOSSES is called multiplication factor (K). If: K < 1 = system is subcritical.

K = 1 = System is CRITICAL.
