The use of Nuclear Fission has many drawbacks. 1) is the chance of a Nuclear Meltdown which can leak a lot of radiation, which can cause horrible illnesses such as cancer. 2) It costs a lot of money to decommission a nuclear power plant. 3) The waste nuclear fission creates can be unstable if not kept at a cool temp. I hope this helped
What else can I help you with?
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
I currently use nuclear fusion.
What process do nuclear reactors use?
Nuclear reactors use nuclear fission.
Nuclear energy can be an answer to the problem caused by the use of fossil fuel?
It might, if we eventually manage to harness nuclear fusion. Nuclear fission is fraught with problems, especially the disposal of nuclear waste.
What element is used in nuclear fission and is radioactive but is not uranium?
We can use plutonium in nuclear fission devices.
Where do you use nuclear energy?
In nuclear fission reactors
Can Nuclear fission be controlled?
Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.
What term is use to describe splitting a large atomic nucleus into smaller ones?
Nuclear fission is defined as splitting large nuclei into smaller ones.
Are nuclear bombs made with nuclear fusion?
Nuclear bombs can use either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion as the primary mechanism of energy release. Most nuclear bombs in current arsenals rely on nuclear fission reactions, while thermonuclear bombs use a fission reaction to trigger a fusion reaction.
What method do we use for generating energy, nuclear fusion or fission?
Nuclear fission is the method currently used for generating energy, while nuclear fusion is still being developed for practical use.
How do you use protons in nuclear fission?
Protons are not the active part in fission, they are just there. It is neutrons that determine the fission behaviour
What is the same between nuclear and breeder reactors?
They all use nuclear fission
What is nuclear energies most common use?
That released by fission in a nuclear reactor
