On bombarding $U^{235}$ by slow neutrons,$200 \text{ MeV}$ of energy is released. If the power output of an atomic reactor is $1.6 \text{ MW}$,then the rate of fission will be:

  • A
    $5 \times 10^{22} / s$
  • B
    $5 \times 10^{16} / s$
  • C
    $8 \times 10^{16} / s$
  • D
    $20 \times 10^{16} / s$
