By what process are surface materials removed and transported from one location to another?
Erosion is the process of surface materials and their transport.
What is the process that produces coal deposits?
Nuclear fission
What are the process in which nuclei with small masses are combined to form a nucleus with a larger mass?
Combining the nuclei of atoms is called Nuclear Fusion. A reaction that is found in stars.
What is the process called that releases energy from Uranium?
Nuclear fission
What process takes place when uranium -235 splits into two smaller nuclei plus neutrons?
This is called nuclear fission. During this process a small amount of mass is annihilated which produces energy
Which nuclear process occurs within nuclear power plants and produces radioactive waste materials?
Nuclear Fission
What is nuclear wast?
During nuclear division and the process of metabolic activities ,some waste materials are formed in the nucleus. it is called nuclear waste.
What happens if a nuclear reactor blows up?
A nuclear meltdown will be in process releasing radioactive material
What happens in a complete nuclear meltdown?
Normally in a nuclear power plant the heat generated by the fission process is drawn off to produce power. A nuclear meltdown occurs when the systems responsible for doing so are damaged or fail and the fissile materials (uranium, plutonium ect) used to generate energy in the plant get hot enough to melt themselves and their containers. When this happens not only is the core of the reactor damaged, making unusable until repaired, but the radioactive fissile materials could be released in to the environment.
What process happens when two atoms combine?
Nuclear fusion
What is the role of nuclear transfer in the process of animal cloning?
Its to put the DNA from the parent into the egg to form the clone.
What is nuclear fusion in astronomy?
It's the process that takes place in the cores of stars, creating heavier elements out of lighter ones, and liberating nuclear energy that leaves the stars in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
The process in which each split atom gives up neutrons which in turn split other atoms and so on is called an?
A nuclear chain reaction. This is what happens in a nuclear reactor.
Nuclear grade concrete?
Nuclear grade concrete is a method of qualifying, procuring and quarantine of constituent concrete materials. These qualified materials are then introduced into a manufacturing process that incorporates qualified equipment, processes and personel into a material that's meets strict reqirements for public safety.
What is the process of weathered material being moved by wind water or ice?
The creation of energy is weathered material being moved by wind, water, or ice. . This is done by creating energy through kinetic movement. It also happens to be clean energy, due to absence of fossil fuels.
What are the three major in the process in the process of creation?
When creating art an idea is formed as the first phase. Then the accumulation of supplies and the creation of the art happens as the next phases.
What happens when the sun hydrogen atoms join to became helium atoms?
This is the process of nuclear fusion which is undergone within stars.
