Best Answer

It is related to the specific nuclear reactor design including the nuclear fuel amount and the reactor control system and the energy extracting medium (coolant) capacity.

The amount of energy produced during nuclear fission is related to what?

It is related to the specific nuclear reactor design including the nuclear fuel amount and the reactor control system and the energy extracting medium (coolant) capacity.


In a reactor what is nuclear energy produced in?

It is produced in the fuel rods by fission of the U235 nuclei. Each fission produces a certain amount of heat, and this is transferred to the water or gas which is pumped past the fuel, by contact heat transfer.


How does fission produce?

Nuclear fission is nuclear reaction in which nucleus of an atom , usually a heavy element, splits into smaller parts i.e. lighter nuclei . Free neutrons and photons are produced along with release of large amount of energy.


In nuclear fission how does the loss in mass affect the amount of energy given off?

They are directly related through equation E = mc2. In each fission the nucleus loses a little mass and releases an equivalent amount of energy.


What caused nuclear energy to be produced?

Basically, the fission or splitting of the nucleus of Uranium 235 or Plutonium 239, which releases a large amount of thermal energy


How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in a nuclear reactor?

Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

What happens from the sun's nuclear fision?

Not much to speak of. There is no significant amount of nuclear fission going on in the Sun.


What do nuclear fission release?

Large amount of energy and extra neutrons are released


How nuclear technologies produce enermouse amount of energy?

Nuclear fission produces energy 2.5 million times that of carbon of same mass. Nuclear fusion produces energy 400 times that of nuclear fission of same mass.


Is nuclear energy renuable?

No, nuclear energy is not renewable nor sustainable. For nuclear fission to work, it requires a special type (isotope) of uranium. There is a finite amount of uranium on the planet, therefore this is not renewable. Also, the nuclear waste produced is not sustainable. An example of renewable energy would be a wind turbine.
