Does fusion produce radioactive waste?
No. The products of nuclear fusion are not radioactive.
Nuclear fusion compared to nuclear fission?
Fission is the breaking up of atomic nuclei whereas fusion is joining of nuclei.does not produce as much waste
Can americium produce nuclear fusion?
Americium was not tested to produce nuclear fusion.
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
Hydrogen bombs and stars both produce energy with nuclear?
Nuclear fusion.
What is the benefit of nuclear fusion and What is one thing nuclear fission and nuclear fusion have in common?
nuclear fusion make more energy and they both make energy and have waste products
How nuclear fusion and nuclear fission differ in terms of environmental hazards?
Nuclear fission involves splitting an atom and creates radioactive waste. Nuclear fusion involves bringing an atom together and creates no radiative waste
Why does a star produce light?
Because of nuclear fusion! The nuclear fusion releases energy which produces light.
What is combining nuclei of atoms to produce energy called?
That would be nuclear fusion, like what happens in stars, when two hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus.
Does nuclear fusion produce much less energy per atom than nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion produce energy 400 times more than nuclear fission for the same mass.
How does nuclear fusion generate the suns energy?
The Sun energy is from hydrogen 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'
