close to a million dollars
How much does it cost to produce one more unit of a good.
Answer it!!
84.00
Much less than they sell it for.
Phones were not sold. You had to rent one from the phone company and the cost was part of the bill.
You don't say how big your pellet is. 1 kg of uranium 235 will give as much energy as 1500 tonnes of coal
Depends on the size of your pellet. 1 kg of Uranium235 is equivalent to 1500 tonnes of coal.
7 g 235U is approx. equivalent to 20 t coal (for the complete fission of the uranium).
The energy in one thimble sized uranium fuel pellet is about the same as in the coal in a 100 mile long coal train.... if that gives any idea.
Not necessary for natural uranium; the most energetic gamma radiation of natural uranium has an energy of only ca. 183 keV uranium; uranium is not so dangerous as a radioactive element. Uranium is more toxic - ingested or inhaled.
Approx. 99 US $ for 1 kg of unrefined oxide U3O8 (spot price at 30.07.2012).
8 August 2011: 51,5 USD for 1 pound of the unrefinned oxide U3O8.
There are many types of uranium pellets depending on the nuclear reactor type and the used uranium enrichment (or uranium-235 content). It may be more illustrative to say that: 1 gram of uranium-235 when undergoes fission in a nuclear reactor gives energy roughly equivalent to burning 3 tonnes of coal or 2 tonnes of oil.
# I'm not clear what size pellet you mean. However for Uranium235 (the fissile isotope), if it is fully used up, 1 kg will give as much energy as 1500 tonnes of coal, ie 1,500,000 kg of coal, so that is the ratio, 1,500,000 to 1. Of course uranium as loaded into the reactor is actually about 4 percent U235, the rest U238 which is not fissile, so the U235 is 1/25 of the total weight of uranium, and if you mean the total uranium weight you therefore have to reduce this ratio by 25, and get 60,000 to 1.
April Fool!!! You have been had............ Did you get the name. apr1 (April first) Yea I want one too.
One uranium fuel pellet about the size of a thimble can generate the same amount of energy as roughly one ton of coal.
In one mole of Uranium there are 238.02891g of Uranium. This number comes from its atomic weight on the Periodic Table. The mass of one mole of an element is its atomic weight in grams.
