What does the control rod (cadmium rod) do in a nuclear reactor? A. The fission absorbs excessive heat generated during the reaction and thus prevents excess temperature rise. B. Absorbs extra neutrons to control the chain reaction. C. Reduces the energy of neutrons so that they can be further used for the fission reaction. D. The chain produces the neutrons required for the fission reaction.
Consider the following statements: 1. The chain reaction process is used in nuclear bombs to release a vast amount of energy, but in nuclear reactors, there is no chain reaction. 2. In a nuclear reactor, the reaction is controlled, while in nuclear bombs, the reaction is uncontrolled. 3. In a nuclear reactor, all operating reactors are ‘critical’, while there is no question of ‘criticality’ in case of a nuclear bomb. 4. Nuclear reactors do not use moderators, while nuclear bombs use them. Which of the above statements about operational principles of a nuclear reactor and a nuclear bomb is / are correct?
