What else can I help you with?
Which is not an example of fossil fuel?
Uranium-235, which powers nuclear fission
How are slpitting atoms usable?
This is called nuclear fission and it is what powers nuclear reactors and of course the wonderfully horrendous atomic bomb...
How are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission different from each other?
Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two types of nuclear reactions that release energy. Fusion combines atomic nuclei to create heavier elements, while fission splits atomic nuclei into smaller fragments. Fusion powers the sun and hydrogen bombs, while fission is used in nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
Where do you get nuclear fission?
You get nuclear fission in:nuclear fission reactorsatomic fission bombs
What is the process of splitting an atom called?
The process of splitting an atom is called nuclear fission. This is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. Nuclear fission is the process that powers nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
A nuclear reaction in which an atoms nucleus is split into two smaller nuclei and energy is released as heat is known as?
nuclear fission
Do fusion powers nuclear reactors?
No. Our reactors are fission reactors. We haven't yet mastered fusion reactors for power.
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.
How is nuclear energy and fusion energy different?
Nuclear energy typically refers to fission, where atoms are split to release energy. Fusion energy involves merging atoms to release energy, mimicking the process that powers the sun. Fusion has the potential to generate more energy and produce less waste compared to fission.
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called?
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the principle behind nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
Splitting of atomic nuclei, also known as nuclear fission, is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts. This process releases a significant amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
