How are fission and fission similar?
Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.
Fission and fusion are examples of what?
Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.
Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?
Energy is released during fusion and fission.
How does nuclear fission differ from nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fission is the process of splitting a nucleus with a large mass into two nuclei with smaller masses. The energy released can then be used to produce electricity. Nuclear fusion is the process of merging nuclei with smaller masses into a nucleus with a larger mass. The energy released by this reaction may someday be used to produce electricity. In other words, Nuclear Fusion is the exact opposite of Nuclear fission. While Nuclear Fission is splitting a nucleus into two nuclei, nuclear fusion is merging two nuclei into a nucleus.
What isdifference nuclear fission and nuclear fission?
The difference between Fusion and Fission is that Fission is easier to do and produces more energy than fusion reactions. However fission can be dangerous and is used in Nuclear reactors. Fusion however is safer and produces less energy but safely. It is quite difficult to cause a Fusion reaction however.
Which process would release energy from gold fission or fusion?
fission
What do fusion and fission release?
Kinetic energy, which is quickly converted to thermal energy
How are fission and fission similar?
Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.
How nuclear fusion differ to nuclear fission in terms of energy release?
Energy from nuclear fusion is around 400 times more than that of nuclear fission for same mass.
Outline on nuclear energy?
Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion
Fission and fusion are examples of what?
Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.
Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?
Energy is released during fusion and fission.
Do H-bombs deal with fission?
To some degree. Hydrogen bombs release energy via nuclear fusion, but they use a fission reaction to trigger the fusion.
How are fissions and fusion similar?
Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.
Name a nuclear process in which a huge amount of energy is released and which can also be used to generate electrical energy in power stations?
The processes of fission, fusion and fission-fusion-fishion all release energy. Currently, only fission reactors are used to produce electricity.
How are fusion and fission similar to chemical energy?
They are not similar, as fusion and fission involve changes to the nucleus whereas chemical energy involves the bonds between atoms
What are the causes of blast?
A large release of energy from atomic nuclei, either via fission or fusion.
