Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
The two processes which produce nuclear changes are?
Fission & Fusion. I JUST now got an answer right by using this. Good Luck! :D Hope this was helpful.
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
What isdifference nuclear fission and nuclear fission?
The difference between Fusion and Fission is that Fission is easier to do and produces more energy than fusion reactions. However fission can be dangerous and is used in Nuclear reactors. Fusion however is safer and produces less energy but safely. It is quite difficult to cause a Fusion reaction however.
What are the 3 main types of nuclear reactions?
Nuclear fission: When an element breaks apart to form lighter elements and other sub-atomic particles. Nuclear fusion: When two lighter elements fuse to form heavier ones.
Outline on nuclear energy?
Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion
Is it a fission or fusion reaction?
Fission and fusion are different nuclear reactions.
Why no fission on sun?
The Sun get it power by nuclear FUSION not by nuclear fission.
What causes lesser pollution - nuclear fission or fusion?
Nuclear fusion
What is the antonym of nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fission.
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
Is strontium produced by nuclear fusion?
No Strontium is produced by nuclear fission not fusion.
