we will start with this statement cadmium rods have the property to absorb nutrons now we know that for nuclear reactions it is necessary for the neutrons to strike the nucleus of the atom and thus with the help of cadmium rods we can control the number of neutrons striking the nucleus and we can control our nuclear reactions

What is the difference between the nuclear reactions in a nuclear reactor and those in an atomic bomb?
Nuclear reactions in a nuclear reactor are controlled reactions. The reactions in the atomic bomb are not controlled reactions
What is controlled nuclear reactions?
A controlled nuclear reaction is one in which the average number of reactions per second does not increase.
Can Nuclear fission be controlled?
Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.
What is the place where controlled nuclear fission reactions take place?
In the core of a nuclear reactor

How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in nuclear reactor?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

How many nuclear facilities does France currently have?
Nuclear power is produced by controlled nuclear reactions. France derives over 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy. France has 59 nuclear reactors operated by Electricite de France.
