What else can I help you with?
Can nuclear fission be used anywhere in the world?
yes on condition of the availability of the necessary nuclear fission device (nuclear reactors or critical assemblies).
What is the meaning of nuclear reactor?
It is a device where a controlled nuclear fission chain reaction occurs.
What is nuclear bombing?
It Is a device used to destroy cities and their occupants. A single device has the power of several planeloads of conventional bombs.
What is an atom fission machine called?
An atom fission machine is typically referred to as a nuclear fission reactor. This device generates energy by splitting atoms, releasing a large amount of heat that is converted into electricity. It is commonly used in power plants to produce electricity on a large scale.
What is nucular reactor?
A nuclear reactor is a device that initiates and controls nuclear reactions, often used for generating electricity or producing isotopes for various applications. It uses the energy released from nuclear fission or fusion reactions to generate heat, which is then converted into electricity through turbines and generators. Safety measures are put in place to prevent accidents and control the release of radiation.
What is a nuclear reactor and what is its purpose?
The nuclear reactor is a device where a controlled nuclear fission chain reaction occurs. Its purpose is for:propulsion (e,g for nuclear submarines and ice breakers)process heat (e,g, for district heating)electricity productionradioisotope productionresearchmaterial testingmedical treatmentsaline water desalination
What is artificial nuclear reactor?
An artificial nuclear reactor is a device that initiates and controls a sustained nuclear chain reaction. This reaction produces heat, which is used to produce electricity in nuclear power plants. The fission process in these reactors generates energy by splitting atomic nuclei.
Which bomb has a faster energy nuclear bomb or atomic bomb?
I am not sure what is meant by the phrase faster energy. As far as the difference. A nuclear bomb can refer to a fission device (also known as atomic bomb). Or it can be a thermonuclear device (combining both fission and fusion reactions), which yields a larger blast energy from the same amount of material.For some reason, links are not allowed to be added right now, so go to Wikipedia and type in "Nuclear Weapon" for more information.
What is meant by nuclear reactor?
It is a reactor, where atomic nuclei are either combined (fusion) or split (fission), with the consequent release of energy . That great big bright yellow UFO ( unidentified flying object) in the sky , the SUN is a giant nuclear reactor, whereby hydrogen nuclei are fused together to form helium nuclei. , with the consequent release of energy ; electromagnetic waves( heat, radio waves, UV waves , light etc.,) If we could see inside a nuclear reactor on Earth it would just look the same, however, nuclear reactors on Earth are just used to collect heat, for electric generation.
Is a working nuclear reactor a very simple energy conversion device?
It is an energy releasing device, it releases the nuclear energy in U-235 which is produced by fission of the nucleus. In the natural state U-235 does not fission, or rather it does do so but only to a tiny extent which is trivial in terms of energy. The nuclear reactor is essentially a device to promote fission of U-235, and it does this by having a fuel arrangement which will go critical and form a chain reaction, producing heat.
What are nuclear weapons?
A nuclear weapon is any device which utilizes the power produced by either nuclear fission or fusion (mostly fission) to inflict damage upon some type of target. Almost all, if not all nuclear weapons are explosives, either bombs or missile warheads.
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).
