No energy is gained when fusing iron into heavier elements. Heavier elements have a higher potential energy (nuclear energy) than iron.

Will aluminum work on an induction cooktop?

Yes, aluminum will not work on an induction cooktop because it is not magnetic and therefore cannot generate heat through induction.


Why can't massive stars generate energy from iron fusion?

Massive stars cannot generate energy from iron fusion because iron fusion does not release energy, rather it absorbs energy. Iron is the most stable element, and fusion of iron requires more energy than it produces, making it an unfavorable process for generating energy in stars. This leads to the collapse of the star's core and triggers a supernova explosion.


Does an electric current traveling through a wire generate a magnetic field?

Yes, an electric current traveling through a wire generates a magnetic field. There is no way that it cannot do this.


Is current can pass through a magnet?

Since most magnets are made out of some metal or ally, the answer is yes.


Is it possible you generate electricity without energy?

No, because of the law of the conservation of matter and energy. Electricity(energy) cannot just be created.


What happens to windmills when no wind?

When there is no wind, windmills are unable to generate electricity. They rely on wind to turn their blades and in turn, generate power through a turbine. Without wind, the windmill remains stationary and cannot produce energy.


Can warm blooded animals live without heat?

no because they are warm blooded, so they need heat!!!! Wait, we have our own body temperature! We generate heat by energy. Technically we cannot live with out heat, as we always generate heat when we move or do anything else with energy. It cannot be avoided.


Can a waffled crane swim?

No, the waffled crane cannot swim. this happens because the size of their poops are so massive that their butt hole stretches out and it gets filled with water and kills it. Beware if you take a massive dump then dont swim!


Lost neurons cannot be replaced because mature neurons cannot?

divide like other cells in the body. However, neural stem cells in certain areas of the brain have the potential to generate new neurons through a process called neurogenesis. This process primarily occurs in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb.


Can a flat mirror start a fire?

No, a flat mirror cannot start a fire because it only reflects light and does not concentrate it enough to generate heat.
