Q156 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2024 (11 May Shift 1) · Physics
The operation of a nuclear reactor is said to be critical when the value of neutron multiplication factor $K$ is
- A$K=0$
- B$K \gt 1$
- Correct answerC$K=1$
- D$0 \lt K \lt 1$
Solution
In nuclear reactor,
Neutron multiplication factor, $\mathrm{k}=1$, then the operation of nuclear reactor is critical
Neutron multiplication factor, $\mathrm{k}=1$, then the operation of nuclear reactor is critical
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
