What is the energy stored in the center of an atom?
nuclear energy
How do you turn nuclear energy into thermal energy?
Nuclear binding energy is what holds the nucleus of an atom together. When an atom is split, some of the binding energy is released. At the level of the atom, it is kinetic energy of the daughter atoms and particles. This is not different from their temperature, and so the nuclear binding energy is turned directly into heat on the fission of the atom. When we speak of nuclear energy, we are often speaking of nuclear power, referring to nuclear power plants. The above answer really works for them also, at the fundamental level.
What is the energy transfer in a nuclear reactor?
the controlled release of nuclear energy in a reactor is accomplished
How can a uranium atom be made to release nuclear energy?
Every atom contains nuclear energy inside it. That nuclear energy can be released by splitting the atom. The uranium atom is one of the ones that is easier to split. Usually to release the nuclear energy atoms are collided with each other which breaks them releasing the nuclear energy. This is done in a machine called a particle accelerator in which atoms are fired at near the speed of light and when they collide and split they release nuclear energy. I Hope that answers your question.
The bonds between the protons of a silver atom is what kind of energy?
nuclear energy
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom is called?
Energy that is stored in the nucleus of an atom is called Atomic Energy or nuclear energy.
What is the energy stored in the center of an atom?
nuclear energy
What is the potential energy in the nucleus of an atom called?
The energy stored in the nucleus of an atom is called atomic or nuclear energy. This energy is potential because it is kinetic.
Is there energy in the nucleus of an atom?
yes it is nuclear energy
Where was nuclear energy discovered?
an atom

Is a nucleus an atom that produces nuclear energy?
No, it is a part of an atom.
What energy stored in the center of atoms is called what energy?
Nuclear energy. (Centre of an atom → nucleus → nuclear)
What energy is needed to break up a nucleus of an atom?
the nuclear binding energy
What is the energy transfer in a nuclear reactor?
the controlled release of nuclear energy in a reactor is accomplished
