What type of power splits atoms?
Atomic energy, also called Nuclear energy (since it is the nucleus, or core, of the atom that is split).When the atoms are split, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fission. When the atoms are merged, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fusion.
Why does an atomic bomb release more energy than a conventional chemical bomb?
An atomic bomb releases more energy than a conventional chemical bomb because the atomic bomb releases binding, or Nuclear Strong Force, energy while the conventional bomb releases chemical energy, and there is far more binding energy (hundreds and thousands of times) than there is chemical energy from the same mass of material.
What form of energy does nuclear fission release?
Nuclear binding energy is released mostly as heat energy.
The binding energy of an atomic nucleus is the energy equivalent to the atom's?
mass defect
What is the atomic structure of heat?
Heat does not have an atomic structure. It is a form of energy, not matter.
Were do you get nuclear energy?
You get nuclear energy from the binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) that holds the nucleus together.
The energy and particles given off during a nuclear reaction are called?
Radiation
This is also known as atomic energy?
The source of atomic energy is the "binding energy" that exists in the nucleus of all atoms. This is the energy that is contained in the union of the protons and neutrons of the nucleus. When the nucleus is split apart, the binding energy is released.
What type of energy is in nuclear reactions?
The binding energy in atomic nuclei. This energy is transmitted by the strong force.
Is fission a nuclear force?
No. Fission is the splitting of atomic nuclei, which releases binding energy. That is the nuclear force.
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.
What makes nuclear power nuclear?
The word nuclear comes from nucleus. Nuclear power comes from the release of binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) in the nucleus of atoms.
What is binding energy contributed to?
Nuclear energy is based on the release of binding energy.
What is nuclear blinding energy?
Nuclear binding energy is the energy that holds nucleons (protons and neutrons) together in an atomic nucleus. It is derived from what is called mass deficit. Each nucleon in the atom gives up a tiny amount of its mass when the atom is created. This mass in converted into binding energy.
How do you work out binding energy?
The binding energy is used in nuclear reactors.
How does the energy involved in nuclear processes compare to that of chemical interactions and mechanical processes?
Nuclear energy vastly overshadows the energy from chemical and mechanical energy, because nuclear energy is based on the release of binding energy, which lies at the core of everything. It is the Strong Atomic Force.
What energy transformations are in a nuclear bomb?
nuclear binding energy to thermal energy
