How are fission and fission similar?
Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.
How are fissions and fusion similar?
Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.
Are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission opposites?
Sort of. Nuclear fusion is when two atoms are fused together to make another one, while nuclear fission is when one atom is split into two atoms. Both processes, however, involve a loss of mass representing the binding energy that was released. This binding energy is manifest as heat. It just happens that the amount of loss is far greater in fusion than in fission. That's why the H-Bomb (a fusion device) is so much more powerful than the A-Bomb (a fission device).
In both fusion and fission what is converted into energy?
Mass. When you split a large atom (fission) into parts the mass of the parts is less then the original atom. The "lost" mass comes out as energy. When you combine two small atoms into a larger atom (fusion) , the larger atom has less mass then the two original atoms and the "lost" mass comes out as energy.
Which is more strong in producing energy the fusion or the fission?
Fusion produces energy more than fission by around 400 times for same mass.
How does nuclear fission and nuclear fusion get power?
The mass defect due to fission or fusion converts to energy according to the equation: E = m c 2
For each gram of reactant fusion produces what energy than fission?
Fusion produces energy more than fission by around 400 times for same mass.
For each gram of reactan fusion produses what energy than fission?
Fusion produces energy more than fission by around 400 times for same mass.
The mass of an atom aftre it under goes fission or fusion?
The mass of an atom after undergoing fission or fusion will be less than the original mass because some of the mass is converted into energy according to Einstein's mass-energy equivalence (E=mc^2). In fission, the total mass of the products is less than the original atom due to the release of energy. In fusion, the combined mass of the reactants will be slightly more than the mass of the resulting atom due to the energy input required.
Different shapes of nuclear fission and fusion to nuclear energy?
Nuclear fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei (as U-235) when bombarded by neutrons. The nuclear fusion is the combination of two lighter nuclei into one nucleus. Both nuclear fission and nuclear fusion result in loss of mass (or mass defect) that transforms into energy according to formula E = mc2 (c is light velocity). The resulting energy manifests itself as heat energy/
How nuclear fusion differ to nuclear fission in terms of energy release?
Energy from nuclear fusion is around 400 times more than that of nuclear fission for same mass.
Why is energy released when the nuclear reactions fusion and fission take place?
Energy is released during nuclear fusion and fission due to the conversion of mass into energy, as described by Einstein's equation E=mc². In fusion, lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, resulting in a mass deficit that is converted into energy. In fission, a heavy nucleus splits into lighter nuclei, also producing a mass deficit and releasing energy. Both processes occur because the products have a lower total mass than the reactants, leading to the release of energy.
