Yes, nuclear fission can have several negative effects. One major concern is the production of radioactive waste, which poses long-term storage and environmental risks. Additionally, the potential for catastrophic accidents, as seen in Chernobyl and Fukushima, can lead to widespread contamination and harm to human health. Moreover, nuclear fission can contribute to the proliferation of nuclear weapons if not properly managed.

Nuclear fission does not create any waste materials?

Actually it does.


What 's nuclear?

Nuclear is any activity related to the nuclei of atoms as nuclear energy, nuclear fission, nuclear engineering, nuclear physics, etc.


Are nuclear reactions and nuclear fusions the same thing?

No, nuclear reactions refer to any processes involving changes in the nucleus of an atom, which includes both nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear fusion specifically refers to the process where two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy.


What are nuclear weapons?

A nuclear weapon is any device which utilizes the power produced by either nuclear fission or fusion (mostly fission) to inflict damage upon some type of target. Almost all, if not all nuclear weapons are explosives, either bombs or missile warheads.


Does Nuclear fission create any waste materials.?

nuclear fission results in the presence of used nuclear fuel that should be:either reprocessed (to gain back the remaining uranium and produced plutonium and to get the fission products as vitrified waste), orstored as high active waste; either under water or in dry storage casks.


Are protons involved in a nuclear power plant?

Protons are a part of every nucleus of every element, so they are involved in any nuclear reaction including nuclear fission.


Is true about nuclear fission?

Any nuclei of elements greater than one proton, ie; hydrogen, can undergo fission depending on the amount of energy available.


How is nuclear generation similar to nuclear fusion?

There is very little similarity between present day power plants which use nuclear fission, and any possible nuclear fusion plant of the future

What is nuclear weapon with explain?

A nuclear weapon is any explosive weapon that gets its destructive force from atomic nuclei. There are two ways to do this: nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Fission is the easier to achieve, it takes large already unstable atoms and splits them into smaller atoms with a fast neutron chain reaction. Fusion is harder to achieve, it requires heating and compressing small atoms forcing them to join into larger atoms.Few modern nuclear weapons are pure fission or fusion designs. Early ones were all pure fission, but now they optimize the design for size, cost, mission, etc. by using various mixtures of fission and fusion in different places in the weapon.From your question I am not sure how much explanation you want, or if you are interested more in general operation, design, safety systems/testing, effects, or what specifically. An encyclopedia is a good source for many of these answers. However remember that many of the important details are classified Top Secret-Q Restricted Data.
