Nuclear energy is the energy released during nuclear reactions either by fusion or fission of atomic nuclei. In nuclear fission, atoms are split releasing a large amount of energy, while in nuclear fusion, atoms are combined to release energy. This energy can be harnessed to generate electricity in nuclear power plants.
A limiting factor for using nuclear energy is the production of radioactive waste, which needs to be carefully managed and stored to prevent environmental contamination and health risks. Proper disposal of this waste remains a significant challenge for the industry.
Forms of energy refer to the different ways energy can manifest, such as kinetic, potential, thermal, and chemical energy. Types of energy, on the other hand, categorize energy based on its source or nature, such as mechanical, electrical, nuclear, and electromagnetic energy.
A generator turns mechanical energy, such as from a turbine or engine, into electrical energy. It does this by electromagnetic induction, where moving a conductor (usually wire) through a magnetic field generates an electrical current in the wire.
The energy associated with motion is called kinetic energy. It is dependent on an object's mass and velocity.

This is related to the large forces between nucleons.
Nuclear fusion, turning hydrogen into helium and burnong both.
The Sun's energy is generated by nuclear fusion, the fusion of hydrogen into helium in the core of the Sun.
nuclear fusion is when 2 hydryon atoms combine or FUSE together. when this happens the neculous combine therefore causing nuclear fussion which releaces masses of heat and light enegry that radiates to earth
lighting is enegry do to it bolt.
The Sun gets its energy from nuclear fusion. More specifically, converting hydrogen-1 into helium-4.
They get enegry by giant clouds of dust called nebulae.
