How can nuclear fission be used?
In general, physicists, and specifically nuclear physicists, use nuclear fission in experiments.
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
What process do nuclear reactors use?
Nuclear reactors use nuclear fission.
What are the pros and cons of nuclear fisson?
There are no pros or cons of nuclear fission, it simply IS. Nuclear fission is a natural phenomena that has always existed, no matter how much one likes or dislikes it.However there are pros and cons to how humans choose to use or not use nuclear fission; the technologies we choose to build with it.
Where do you use nuclear energy?
In nuclear fission reactors
What element is used in nuclear fission and is radioactive but is not uranium?
We can use plutonium in nuclear fission devices.
Can Nuclear fission be controlled?
Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.
Why don't we use nuclear energy?
We use nuclear energy on a limited basis due to its instability. One reason we do not use it more is because the energy is not sustainable. There are two types of nuclear fission. Hot fission and cold fission. Hot fission is currently the only method we know how to utilize. Cold fission produces approximately 10 times the energy and produces fewer radiation spikes. We simply do not know how to initiate cold fission.
What do humans use fission for?
One use is in nuclear power plants to produce steam and turn turbines to generate electricity.Nuclear bombs ^.^
Is nuclear fusion more dangerous then nuclear fission?
We don't know much about fusion as it is still very experimental. It will not produce the dangerous fission products that fission does, but it may have other dangers unknown as yet. Nuclear fusion has more destructive potential than fission. Fusion is the principle powering the H-bomb developed in the Cold War. Just to put the power of a Fusion bomb in perspective, it is detonated by a fission bomb half the size of the one dropped on Japan. THAT'S JUST THE DETONATOR.
What is nuclear weapons in which enormous energy is release by nuclear fission?
Fission bombs. They use one or more of 3 fuels: Uranium-233, Uranium-235, or Plutonium-239.
What term is use to describe splitting a large atomic nucleus into smaller ones?
Nuclear fission is defined as splitting large nuclei into smaller ones.
