Nuclear fission can occur in?
A critical assembly of fissile material
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
What a radioactive material used for nuclear fission?
Clearly the main nuclear elements are plutonium, URANIUM, and a not widely known one thorium
True or false the energy from nuclear fission is released as heat?
Heat is produced by the recoil (kinetic energy) of the fission fragments, when they are stopped in the fuel material
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
FISSION. nobody on this website knows the answer..... SHAME
Division of nuclear material is called?
I think by "division" you must mean nuclear fission
Nuclear fission can occur in?
A critical assembly of fissile material
What is the starting material for nuclear fission?
You must not ask "what element", but "what isotope". Uranium-235 is one example of an ISOTOPE that is appropriate for nuclear fission. Uranium-238 is the same for chemical reactions, but for purposes of nuclear reactions, different isotopes must be considered to be different types of atoms.
Where do you get nuclear fission?
You get nuclear fission in:nuclear fission reactorsatomic fission bombs
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
What raw material is needed for nuclear power?
Uranium ore.
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called?
nuclear fission
What type of reaction happens in a nuclear power plant?
Nuclear fission
What a radioactive material used for nuclear fission?
Clearly the main nuclear elements are plutonium, URANIUM, and a not widely known one thorium
True or false the energy from nuclear fission is released as heat?
Heat is produced by the recoil (kinetic energy) of the fission fragments, when they are stopped in the fuel material
Can nuclear fission be harmful?
Yes. The first use we developed for nuclear fission was the atomic bomb. The number of people who died when the bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki is difficult to estimate precisely, but was likely over 200,000. Even aside from nuclear weapons, the products of nuclear fission are highly radioactive and fission itself produces large amount of radiation. Accidents at nuclear power plants, which use controlled fission reactions, can result in radioactive material being released into the environment.
