What do humans use fission for?
One use is in nuclear power plants to produce steam and turn turbines to generate electricity.Nuclear bombs ^.^
Can we store nuclear energy in small packs?
Nuclear energy comes already stored in small packs called atoms. But as for out modest ability to access and harness it for good, we as humans are still a long way from a "small pack" of nuclear energy that might be used to generate electricity, warm food, or light a living space. Anyone who envisions a lunchbox sized nuclear energy source is thinking beyond our technical ability. About the best we can do is build a small nuclear reactor about the size of a shipping container to generate energy via fission.
Give one relevance of nuclear physics?
Nuclear physics is relevant to the average person in the way it affects energy use of humans. These advances include electricity, fission, nuclear power pants, and perhaps cold fusion in the future.
What are the pros and cons of nuclear fisson?
There are no pros or cons of nuclear fission, it simply IS. Nuclear fission is a natural phenomena that has always existed, no matter how much one likes or dislikes it.However there are pros and cons to how humans choose to use or not use nuclear fission; the technologies we choose to build with it.
What process changes hydrogen to helium in a star?
the process is called "nuclear fission ". that means the combining of two hydrogen atoms into one , that is helium . it generates huge amount of energy . it has not yet been done sucessfuly by humans , because it is unstable .however we have controlled nuclear fission . that is just the reverse of it
Where is fission used by humans?
In nuclear reactors, there are over 400 operating power reactors world wide
Why do the very dangerous active fission products fount in nuclear energy need to be stored in a safe place?
the fuel remains active for thousands of years and is very deadly to humans causing certain death
Is nuclear energy good for humans and the environment?
Nuclear energy provides electricity which is good for humans, and for the environment it does not produce greenhouse gases, so that is good. However it has dangers too, so must be well controlled
What are two sources of energy humans have access to?
Nuclear power, solar power.
How are nuclear reactors useful?
They produce electrical energy. Humans need a lot of that.
How can humans save nuclear energy?
beeep beeep beeep beeep beep
What is artificial energy?
There is no such thing. "Artificial" means made by humans; humans can't really MAKE energy. They can only harness EXISTING energy sources.For more information, I suggest you do some reading on "Conservation of energy", for example in the Wikipedia.
