Is the bomb little boy a fission or fusion reaction?
Little Boy is a Nuclear Fission Reaction
What are two types of nuclear reaction?
Fission and fusion
What are the two types of nuclear reaction?
Nuclear Fission & Nuclear fusion.
How do the products of a fusion differ from the products of a fission reaction?
One thing that makes fusion products different from fission products obviously is the fact that fusion products are heavier than the original two nuclei and fission products are lighter than the original nucleus
Why fusion reaction are more energetic than fission reactions?
Nuclear fission does not produce more energy than nuclear fusion. In nuclear fusion (6.4 MeV) per nucleon is given out which is much greater than the energy given out per nucleon (1 MeV) during a nuclear fission reaction.
Is reaction on sun a fusion or fission?
fission..sup
What is the opposite reaction to fusion?
fission
Is the bomb little boy a fission or fusion reaction?
Little Boy is a Nuclear Fission Reaction
What are two types of reaction?
Fission and fusion
How a fusion reactor would be similar to a fission reactor?
explain how a fusion reactor would be similar to a fission reaction
Can fusion take place in the nucleus of a uranium atom?
Not fusion, but a fission reaction.
What are two types of nuclear reaction?
Fission and fusion
Atomic bombs are the result of what nuclear reaction?
fission and/or fusion
What kind of reaction can change an element into another?
Fusion or fission.
Is the nuclear reaction in the sun the same as in nuclear bombs?
In the so-called "hydrogen bomb" or fusion bomb, yes, there is energy released from the same reaction (hydrogen fusing to helium) as in the Sun.However, many if not most atomic bombs are fission bombs that do not involve fusion. In a fission bomb, the nuclei of uranium atoms are split, converting some of their mass to energy.All current fusion bombs include fission reactions to trigger the greater energy release from fusion. But most of the energy in very large fission-fusion bombs comes from a third-stage reaction: the fusion causes an exceptionally powerful fission reaction in a uranium shell around the bomb. This called a Teller-Ulam device or fission-fusion-fission bomb.
What type of reaction supplies the most energy?
fusion nuclear reaction followed by fission nuclear reaction
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.
