What is the definition for nuclear fission?
A nuclear reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits spontaneously or on impact with another particle, with the release of energy.
What is a Z particle?
A Z particle is another name for the Z boson - a fundamental particle which, together with the W boson, mediates the weak nuclear force. It has a charge of 0.
What particle is needed to begin nuclear chain reaction?
Neutron particle is needed to begin nuclear chain reaction.
Neutral nuclear particle?
neutron
A heavier nuclear particle is composed of a triplet of strange quarks. What is a charge if this particle?
electron particle
What particle has no charge and is found in the nucleus of an atom?
The nuclear particle that has no charge is the neutron.
Which is the heaviest and slow moving particle in nuclear instrumentation?
The heaviestis the alpha particle.
What is fission in physics?
In physics, fission is the process in which a heavy, unstable element is split into two lighter elements by bombarding it with a small particle. Some of the energy that was binding the element's nucleus together is then released, along with a third, tiny particle that is released as well. The tiny particle then collides with another of the heavy elements, causing it to split as well, emitting another particle which collides with another heavy element, and so on. This is the chain reaction that allows for sustainable nuclear power generation, in which the reaction is controlled, or the detonation of nuclear weapons, in which the reaction is uncontrolled.
What is the process if the particle of a nuclear reaction is also one of the products?
nuclear fission
What is the particle source of nuclear energy?
your MOMA
What particle is used to start nuclear fission?
In actuality, a spontaneous fission event begins a nuclear chain reaction. It kick starts a nuclear chain reaction. And a neutron from that fission will initiate another fission to continue and rev up that nuclear chain reaction.
Is a proton is a nuclear particle with a mass of 1 AMU and no charge?
No, that would be a neutron. A proton is a nuclear particle with a mass of 1 AMU and a 1+ charge
