No. The moon does not produce any light of its own. It only reflects light from the sun. It does not have enough mass to ignite nuclear fusion, nor is it of the right composition. Finally, nuclear fusion and combustion are two completely different processes.

Do you currently use combustion to produce nuclear energy in nuclear reactors?

No. The heat from the reactor is used to boil water. The steam from said water is used to turn turbines which produces electricity. No, there is no combustion in a nuclear reactor. Nuclear energy does not need combustion to start it, there is no chemical process involved. It works simply by a neutron chain reaction.


The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the?

The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the exhaust valve.


What energy produces fossil fuel?

Through combustion they produce heat.


Is nuclear energy stored in gasoline?

No, nuclear energy is not stored in gasoline. Nuclear energy is generated through the process of nuclear fission in nuclear power plants where uranium atoms are split to release energy. Gasoline, on the other hand, is a fossil fuel primarily used for combustion in internal combustion engines to power vehicles.


What energy does fossil fuel produce?

Through combustion they produce heat.


When the internal combustion located?

well...because of the poor grammar i will answer it in two parts. 1. Internal combustion is the process an engine goes through in order to make power...intake compression combustion and exhaust. 2.Internal Combustion takes place in the engine block


What are some objects that produce light and heat?

Objects such as the sun, light bulbs, candles, and fireplaces produce both light and heat through processes such as nuclear fusion, electrical resistance, and chemical combustion.


What gases are formed in internal combustion?

An internal combustion engine uses either petroleum or diesel. In both cases, the main gases produced are the result of burning the hydro-carbons contained in the fuel. The hydrogen burns with oxygen to produce water vapor (H20) The carbon burn with oxygen to produce carbon dixode (CO2) Other elements are burned and produce very small amounts of other gases.


What is a energy source produced from atomic reactions reactions such as oil?

Nuclear energy is produced from atomic reactions in nuclear power plants, which do not involve the use of oil. Oil is used to produce energy through combustion in power plants or vehicles, but it is not classified as a form of nuclear energy.


How can chemical energy be converted into mechanical energy?

Engines use fuel to produce mechanical energy. For instance, a car's internal combustion engine uses chemical energy stored in fuel to turn a drive shaft.The idea of internal combustion is to burn the compressed mixture of fuel and air to produce expanding gas to convert into mechanical energy.


Is a steam engine an example of an internal combustion engine?

No, the steam engine is an external combustion engine because the steam is heated by heat generated by combustion outside externally through heat transfer. A spark ignition engine is an example of an internal combustion engine.


How are internal combustion engines similar to external combustion engines?

Internal combustion engines and external combustion engines both convert fuel into mechanical energy through combustion. In both types, the combustion process generates heat, which is then used to produce work, typically by moving a piston or rotating a turbine. They also share similar components, such as cylinders, valves, and fuel delivery systems, although their operational processes differ in where combustion occurs. Ultimately, both types aim to harness energy from fuel for various applications like powering vehicles or machinery.
