By a nuclear fusion you must mean an H-Bomb. This releases tremendous heat energy so it will vaporise a lot of water if it explodes near the surface. The shock wave will also cause massive waves to be created.

What energy transformation occurs in nuclear fusion of hydrogen?

In nuclear fusion of hydrogen, the transformation of mass into energy occurs. This is in accordance with Einstein's equation E=mc^2, where a small amount of mass is converted into a large amount of energy.


What is nuclear energy examples?

Mainly:Nuclear power plantsAtomic bombsradioisotopes and radiotracers used in medicine, industry, and agriculturenuclear submarinesnuclear research reactorsnuclear fusion research


Why is nuclear energy a solution to the energy crisis?

Because:Nuclear energy based on nuclear fusion relies on almost unlimited energy primary sources (mainly tritium and deuterium in water).Nuclear energy based on nuclear fission relies on almost unlimited energy primary sources of uranium and thorium; especially when breeders are used.


What happens to energy when nuclear fission or fusion occurs?

Energy is released during nuclear fission or fusion. The mass deficit (apparent loss of mass resulting from the reaction) is represented by a related (e = mc2) release of energy. Note, however, that neither mass nor energy is created or destroyed - it is simply moved from one frame of reference to another.


What are the functions of the deuterium and tritium atoms in nuclear reactors?

All current nuclear reactors are fission reactors, tritium has no function in a fission reactor, in standard water moderated reactors deuterium also has no function, in heavy water moderated reactors deuterium is the moderator. If we are ever able to make a fusion reactor, deuterium/tritium mix will be used as fuel.


What is the energy source heavy water?

Heavy water contains heavy hydrogen, i.e., deuterium. Once nuclear fusion is improved, it might become a viable energy source.


How is nuclear energy converted into energy people can use?

in the nuclear process of generating power immense heat is relaesed and heats water to steam and turns a turbine. this is the same basic principle for fission and fusion


What is called when hydrogen atoms condense to make helium?

This process is know as nuclear fusion, and it produces heat which can be used to convert water into steam for the purpose of mechanical energy production via a turbine in a nuclear fusion reactors.


Scientists hope to build a nuclear fusion reactor fueled by?

Ocean Water


All things contain some nuclear energy?

Einstein showed that all matter is equivalent to energy, and deduced the equation E = mc2. However getting matter to give up this energy requires the right matter and the right conditions. We know there are two ways to obtain it, by fusion and by fission. Fusion is the way the stars produce energy, and this can be made to happen with light elements, isotopes of hydrogen are the easiest to activate. Fission happens with heavy elements like uranium and plutonium, and releases energy we can use in power plants.


Does water have nuclear energy?

Yes, but more specifically, the atoms that make up the water molecule have nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is what hold the atoms together. It holds the nuetrons and protons together within the nucleus of the atom. So anything that has nuetrons and protons has nuclear energy.


How is controlled nuclear fusion a source of energy for us?

it creates an explosion which obciously creates heat which allows a turbine to move through rapid water evaporation thus creating energy.
