Nuclear fission
this is the result of nuclear fission
Nuclear fusion is the phenomenon in which two lighter nuclei get fused to form heavier nucleus with the production of energy. Best example is SUN and hydrogen bomb. But nuclear fission of breaking heavier into lighter with the emission of energy. Example uranium-235. So atom bomb Nuclear fusion has clean energy but fission has hazard energy
Nuclear fission: When an element breaks apart to form lighter elements and other sub-atomic particles. Nuclear fusion: When two lighter elements fuse to form heavier ones.
Nuclear fusion is the process of squeezing two lighter atoms together to make heavier atoms; nuclear fission is the process of splitting heavier atoms into lighter ones. In both processes, some of the mass of the original atoms are converted into energy; fusion tends to convert more mass into energy than fission does, so fusion tends to create more energy. Heavier atoms needed for a fission chain reaction tend to be unstable and radioactive, and thus the fission process tends to produce more radioactivity.
Hydrogen is not changed into helium in nuclear fission. In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more lighter atomic nuclei are forced together and are fused into a heavier nucleus. In the case of the formation of hydrogen into helium, our sun does that in what is called the proton-proton reaction.
nuclear fusion is when two atoms are forced together, fusing their nuclei into a heavier element and releasing a large amount of energy. Fission is when an atom is broken up into smaller atoms releasing a large amount of energy.

Depends on the type of bomb. The first nuclear weapons were fission weapons- they used a heavy metal such as Uranium or Plutonium. These metals, when compressed by explosives, would undergo nuclear fission, and break into lighter elements, releasing heat and radiation. Later, larger bombs were fusion bombs. They used a fission bomb to start the nuclear reaction, but then used that energy to FUSE light elements, such as Deuterium and Tritium into heavier elements, releasing LARGE amounts of heat and radiation.
Fusion means to combine lighter atoms into a heavier atom. Fission means to split a heavy atom into lighter atoms.

That is nuclear fission. An example is that of a Uranium-239 atom undergoing beta decay. That is, a neutron in the nucleus ejects and electron, becoming a proton, resulting in Uranium-239 becoming Neptunium-239.
Fission is a nuclear reaction where a heavy atom is split up into lighter elements, thereby producing energy. Fission is commonly used in nuclear power plants, but someday they will use fusion. Fusion is a nuclear reaction where very light elements are fused together under enormous heat and pressure into heavier elements, thereby producing energy. The Sun and all the stars are fusion reactors. Thermonuclear bombs (H-bombs) use fission (an A-bomb) to produce the heat needed for fusion.

Nuclear fusion. This is the process of fusing two atoms together to make a heavier one. Don't confuse this with nuclear fission, though. Fission is the process of splitting atoms apart (that is what we use for nuclear power plants.)

The Sun gets its energy from fusion, not from fission. Ocassionaly an atom of a heavier element might go through fission, but that's hardly relevant for the working of the Sun.The Sun gets its energy from fusion, not from fission.

Fusion (combining light atoms into heavier atoms), and fission (splitting heavy atoms).
