The energy released by a fission or fusion reaction?
What is the question
Is it a fission or fusion reaction?
Fission and fusion are different nuclear reactions.
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 it true that very small amounts of energy are released by fission and fusion?
It depends. For nuclei lighter than nickel, fusion usually releases energy while fission requires energy. For nuclei heavier than nickel, fission usually releases energy while fusion requires energy.
Is the bomb little boy a fission or fusion reaction?
Little Boy is a Nuclear Fission Reaction
Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?
Energy is released during fusion and fission.
The energy released by a fission or fusion reaction?
What is the question
Outline on nuclear energy?
Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion
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.
Is nuclear energy a fission or fusion reaction?
Nuclear energy is either:fission reaction, orfusion reaction, orradioactive decay
Define Nuclear power?
The energy released by a nuclear reaction, especially by fission or fusion.
What is the definition of necular energy?
Atomic energy is released during a nuclear reaction during fission or fusion. It is released by the nucleus of an atom and can also be a result of radioactive decay.
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.
Is the energy given off in a fusion reaction greater or less than the energy off in a fission reaction?
greater than
Is it a fission or fusion reaction?
Fission and fusion are different nuclear reactions.
Do H-bombs deal with fission?
To some degree. Hydrogen bombs release energy via nuclear fusion, but they use a fission reaction to trigger the fusion.
