How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
What are the two processes that produce nuclear energy?
fission and fusion
What do nuclear fusion and fission have in common?
Nuclear fusion and fission are both processes that involve releasing energy from the nucleus of an atom. They can both produce large amounts of energy and are used in nuclear power plants.
Does nuclear fusion produce much less energy per atom than nuclear fission?
In terms of energy per atom, nuclear fusion produces more energy than nuclear fission. Fusion reactions involve the combination of lighter atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. Fission reactions, on the other hand, involve the splitting of heavier atomic nuclei into smaller fragments, releasing energy.
How does nuclear fusion generate the suns energy?
Nuclear fusion in the sun occurs when hydrogen atoms combine to form helium atoms. This process releases large amounts of energy in the form of photons. The intense pressure and temperature in the sun's core create the conditions necessary for nuclear fusion to occur.
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
Why does a star produce light?
Because of nuclear fusion! The nuclear fusion releases energy which produces light.
What is combining nuclei of atoms to produce energy called?
That would be nuclear fusion, like what happens in stars, when two hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus.
What is the process occurring in stars to produce energy?
Nuclear fusion
What are the two processes that produce nuclear energy?
fission and fusion
Where does the sun produce energy through the nuclear fusion?
in its core
The process in which the sun produces energy is known as what?
Nuclear fusion, hydrogen burns and the energy gets turned into mass
Does magnetism produce energy in the sun?
No, the sun's energy comes from nuclear fusion reactions
How do hydrogen bombs and stars both produce nuclear energy?
Stars like our sun and hydrogen bombs produce energy through nuclear fusion.
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.
Is fusion nuclear energy or chemical energy?
Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy
Can americium produce nuclear fusion?
Americium was not tested to produce nuclear fusion.
