Because the nuclei are all positively charged they repel each other. They are made to stick to each other when brought close enough for the strong force to take hold.
Nuclei can fuse together through a process called nuclear fusion, which involves the combination of two light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the source of power in stars, including the Sun. Nuclear fusion requires extremely high temperatures and pressures to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged nuclei.
Nuclear fusion is when the nuclei of atoms forge together making an extreme amount of heat. The sun is fiery because of fusion
No. Nuclei are objects, nuclear fusion is a process in which those objects join to make bigger nuclei.
False. A nuclear reaction in which the nuclei of atoms join together is called fusion, not fission. Fusion is the process that powers the sun and hydrogen bombs. Fission, on the other hand, is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei.
Nuclear fusion
During the solar nuclear reaction, hydrogen nuclei (protons) bond together to form helium nuclei through a process called nuclear fusion. This fusion involves the conversion of hydrogen into helium, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
False. Combining nuclei to form a new nucleus is called nuclear fusion. Nuclear fission is the splitting of an atomic nucleus.
Fusion, as it is joining the nuclei of smalled atoms together to form another atom and a spare neutron and releases energy. In a main sequence star, such as our sun, it will fuse together the nuclei of the isotopes of hydrogen (deuterium and tritium) to form helium.
Where people fuse two atoms together to make the nuclei heavier
I think you mean nuclear fusion, the reaction that powers the sun.
When two smaller nuclei come together, it is called nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the process where two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This is the process that powers the sun and other stars.
The fusion barrier in nuclear physics refers to the energy threshold that two atomic nuclei must overcome to fuse together and release energy, as in a nuclear fusion reaction. It represents the energy required to bring the positively charged nuclei close enough for the strong nuclear force to overcome the electrostatic repulsion, allowing the nuclei to fuse.
