How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in a nuclear reaction?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
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.
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
What is it called when nuclear fission is repeated?
It is called nuclear chain fission reaction.
What is an atom fission machine called?
An atomic fission machine (device) might be called a nuclear reactor or a nuclear weapon.
What is a force that tends to pull atoms apart?
The force that pulls atoms apart is called fission. Nuclear reactors use controlled fission to produce massive amounts of energy.

What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
Why is it called Nuclear Fission?
It is called nuclear fission as in this process the heavy nuclei are split into fragments (or fission products).
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called?
nuclear fission
What is it called when nuclear fission is repeated?
It is called nuclear chain fission reaction.
What is cell division in prokaryotes called?
The division of cells in prokaryotes is called mitosis just as it is called in eukaryotes.
Prokaryotic cells reproduce by a process called?
binary fission
What have chain reactions got to do with nuclear fission?
The fission process in a nuclear reactor which produces the thermal energy used in the steam cycle, is called a chain reaction because nuclei of U-235 and Pu-239 fission on absorbing a neutron, and the fission causes further neutrons to be released, thus a self sustaining reaction is started which is controlled to run at a steady power level.
What is the mechanism of an atomic bomb?
Severely oversimplifying it the mechanism is called rapid assembly, but there is more than one way to do it.In fission bombs it is done with either the gun method or the implosion method.In fusion bombs it is done with the x-ray radiation implosion method.
