The number of \mathrm{92^{235} in\, \, 2 \mathrm{~kg}}
\mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & N=\frac{(2 \times 1000)}{235} \times 6.02 \times 10^{23} . \\ & N=5.12 \times 10^{24} \end{aligned} }
The fission of each \mathrm{ 920^{235}} produces energy\mathrm{=185 \mathrm{MeV}}
Total energy produces
\mathrm{\begin{aligned} E & =(5.12 \times 10)^{24} \times\left(185 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-13}\right) \mathrm{J} \\ & =1572.3 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~J} \end{aligned}}
\mathrm{The\, \, power \, \, output,\, \, p=\frac{E}{t}=\frac{1572.3 \times 10^{11}}{30 \times 24 \times 3600} }
\mathrm{=6.06 \times 10^7 \mathrm{~W} \text { Ans. } }
