As we learnt in 

energy mass equivalence -

Delta E=Delta m.c^{2}       

- wherein

Delta m = mass defect

Delta E = energy released

 

 

 \\ E=\Delta mc^{2} \\ \\ \Delta m= \frac{10^{6}W}{9\times 10^{16}} \: = \: \frac{1}{9}\times 10^{-10} \: kg/ sec

         \frac{1}{9} \times 3600 \times 10^{-10} \: kg/ hr \: \: = 400\times 10^{-7} \: g/hr

                                                          =40 \: microgram/hr
