No one currently uses nuclear fusion, as the technology has not yet been developed to actually put nuclear fusion into practical use.
The only place nuclear fusion is used on a large scale is in nuclear weapons...bombs.

∙ 12y agoPeople use nuclear fission to produce electricity by making hot water or steam that is used to turn electrical generators. They do this because there are economic, and perhaps environmental, advantages to doing so. Fission does not itself result in electricity; it merely provides the heat that would otherwise be provided by burning coal, oil or natural gas.

Does a MRI machine use nuclear fusion or fission?
it uses nuclear fusion-I don't think so!! It uses electrical energy to move the magnetic fields around in order to scan the subject. Nuclear fusion is not used for any purpose on earth except H-bombs
Is nuclear chain reaction is called fusion?
The idea of nuclear fusion occurring at room temperature is called cold fusion.
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
What is the benefit of nuclear fusion and What is one thing nuclear fission and nuclear fusion have in common?
nuclear fusion make more energy and they both make energy and have waste products
What comes after nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fusion is itself a difficult enough one to crack!
Does nuclear power plants uses nuclear fusion?
No, they rely on fission. Controlled fusion is the holy grail of nuclear power.
Destructive uses of nuclear fusion?
H-bombs
What are the products of nuclear fusion in a hydrogen bomb?
The nuclear fusion uses Hydrogen to produce Helium. The fusion also releases a lot of energy, which is what causes the explosion.

A reaction in combining smaller atomic nuclei is?
nuclear fusion
Does the sun produce hydrogen?
No. It uses hydrogen during nuclear fusion to produce helium.
What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
Is it true that nuclear fusion is like a bomb?
Both fission and fusion can be used to make nuclear bombs, in fact almost every nuclear bomb in stockpile in the world today uses both fission and fusion to achieve its total yield, optimize it material efficiency, and reduce size and weight.
The process of combining two small nuclei into one nucleus of larger mass is called?
Combining two atomic nuclei is called nuclear fusion.
Is fusion chemical nuclear or mechanical?
Fusion is a nuclear reaction.
Is nuclear chain reaction is called fusion?
The idea of nuclear fusion occurring at room temperature is called cold fusion.
Is fusion nuclear energy or chemical energy?
Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy
