Nuclear power is the major source of energy among all nations.

Fact: Radioactive materials such as uranium are used as fuel in nuclear reactors to produce nuclear energy through a process called nuclear fission, where atoms are split to release energy. Fib: Radioactive materials used in nuclear energy production can explode like a nuclear bomb.
If you're referring to nuclear energy in power generating plants, it is nuclear fission. If you're referring to the nuclear energy in our Sun, it is nuclear fusion.
1. Nuclear energy is the result of nuclear fission of fissile nuclei as uranium-235, uranium-233, plutonium-239, etc. 2. Industrial nuclear energy has as source nuclear reactors.
Full Form of IAEA is International Atomic Energy Agency.
Nuclear fusion releases huge amounts of energy. It occurs when the nuclei of elements are fused together at high temperatures and high pressure. Fusion energy is used to produce energy for some of the Earth's cities.
Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy
The energy released is nuclear energy.
Nuclear fission is a type of nuclear reaction that converts nuclear energy into thermal energy (heat), which can then be used to generate mechanical energy (such as electricity). So, fission nuclear energy originates as nuclear energy and can be converted into mechanical energy.
The energy stored in an atom's nucleus is nuclear energy. This energy is released through processes like nuclear fusion or fission, which involve manipulating the nucleus of an atom to release large amounts of energy.
Yes, Albert Einstein played a key role in the development of nuclear energy. While he did not conduct experimental work in nuclear physics, his famous equation E=mc^2 laid the theoretical foundation for understanding the relationship between mass and energy, which is fundamental to nuclear energy production and the development of nuclear weapons.
In a nuclear reaction, a small amount of mass is converted into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2. The energy released is in the form of electromagnetic radiation, such as gamma rays, and the kinetic energy of the particles produced in the reaction.
