Which of the following nuclei is likely to release energy when undergoing nuclear fusion?
3 H (deuterium) 1
Is a nuclear power plant producing electricity an example of nuclear fusion?
yes. this is because nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion
What is the name of the process in the center of the sun that generates its energy?
Nuclear fusion.
Which of the earth sun and moon orbits which?
The Sun as it's the only body in the Solar System that is undergoing nuclear fusion.
What does Nuclear Fusion have to do with stars?
The stars produce their heat from nuclear fusion reactions. Work on earth to produce controllable nuclear fusion is concentrating on one particular reaction, between deuterium and tritium, because it is the easiest to get going (though hard enough!). Stars operate with other reactions but all of the nuclear fusion type. You can read more in Wikipedia 'Nuclear fusion'
Which type of star is NOT undergoing nuclear fusion?
A protostar; also a brown dwarf.
What element is undergoing fusion reactions at the suns center?
Hydrogen (into Helium).
What fusion takes place in the center of the sun?
Nuclear Fusion
What is the cause of suns release of radiant energy?
Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.
Which of the following nuclei is likely to release energy when undergoing nuclear fusion?
3 H (deuterium) 1
What are some products of nuclear fusion?
Any element except Hydrogen technically. The product depends on what elements are undergoing nuclear fusion, e.g. 2 Hydrogen atoms form a Helium atom. You will need to specify for an answer.
Is a nuclear power plant producing electricity an example of nuclear fusion?
yes. this is because nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion
What is the name of the process in the center of the sun that generates its energy?
Nuclear fusion.
Why does a star produce light?
Because of nuclear fusion! The nuclear fusion releases energy which produces light.
How is the Moon different from the Sun?
The moon is a solid ball of rock. The sun is a star, a roiling mass of gases undergoing nuclear fusion reactions.
How is energy created in the center of the sun?
By nuclear fusion of hydrogen to form helium
Is a star's energy a generated by nuclear reactions in the center?
Yes, that's correct. Specifically, by nuclear fusion.
