What does atomic bombs use for its explosive power?
the atomic bomb gets its power from the hydrogen atom, which is split, releasing a tremendous amount of energy.
How many bonds can helium make?
Helium does not form any bonds unless it is ionized using a tremendous energy. And it undergoes nuclear reactions when there is a high temperature such as the sun's surface.
How do chloroplasts release energy?
They are not releasing energy. they are storing energy.
Is the energy released by the stars a result of fission reactions?
No. However, the stars do use a different form of nuclear energy, called nuclear fusion or fusion.In fission, heavy elements such as uranium are broken down into smaller elements, releasing huge amounts of energy in the process. This is used in power plants on Earth and was used in the first nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan.In fusion, however, light elements starting with Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the Universe, are actually fused together into heavier elements such as Helium. Stars use this because there is SO much Hydrogen in the universe, and stars are full of it. Fusion requires a tremendous amount of energy to kick-start, but in return an even more tremendous amount of energy is released. That is what powers the stars. Currently, it is believed that elements up to oxygen (8) exist in our Sun.
In nuclear reactions what is converted into energy?
Mass is destroyed, releasing energy, E = mc2
Nuclear reactions result in tremendous amounts of?
Energy, in the release of binding energy
What are examples of artificial radioactivity?
The bombardment of U-235 isotope with a nucleus, releasing tremendous amount of energy.
Why did scientists learn in the 1930s that led to the Manhattan project?
Uranium atoms could be split releasing tremendous energy
What creates the suns light and heat energy?
Nuclear fusion. Enormous pressure near the sun's center causes atoms of hydrogen to fuse together and form helium atoms releasing tremendous amounts of energy- put really simply. ALL stars use the same method to create heat and energy.
Why does nuclear reactions produce tremendous amounts of energy and what is the source of this energy?
It is due to the annihilation of a small part of the nuclear masses involved
Process is how the sun produces energy?
Nuclear fusion. Atoms are smashed together in the star's core, releasing massive amounts of energy.
What are violent explosions from sunspots in which gas and tremendous amounts of energy are blasted into space away from the Sun.?
solar flares
What is oxygen used to break down food molecules releasing large amounts of energy?
Cellular Respiration
During what oxygen is used to break down food molecules releasing large amounts of energy?
Cellular Respiration
What does atomic bombs use for its explosive power?
the atomic bomb gets its power from the hydrogen atom, which is split, releasing a tremendous amount of energy.
Are violent explosions from sunspots in which gas and tremendous amounts of energy are blasted into space away from the Sun.?
Solar Flares (Study Island)
What is inside the sun?
The sun is composed mostly of hydrogen, some helium, and trace amounts of other elements. At the cor of the sun hydrogen is undergoing nuclear fusion and turning into helium, releasing huge amounts of energy.
