What is the difference between hot nuclear fusion and cold nuclear fusion?

"Hot" nuclear fusion (this is not the term normally used) is exactly what the name implies, the materials are heated, which provides them with enough energy to overcome the normal repulsion of protons. Cold nuclear fusion requires no heating and has not yet been proved, although dozens of Physicists and Electro-Chemists have claimed to have created cold fusion. Cold Fusion relies on other forces, such as pressure, to overcome the electrostatic force of repulsion.


What happens in the bonding of two nuclear tides?

In nuclear fusion, two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This process is the primary source of energy in stars, including our Sun, where hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium. Nuclear fusion requires extremely high temperatures and pressures to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged nuclei.


Does nuclear fusion occurs at cooler temperatures away from the Sun?

Nuclear fusion generally requires high temperatures and pressure to occur. In the Sun, fusion happens at temperatures of millions of degrees. While researchers are working on developing ways to achieve fusion at cooler temperatures on Earth, current technology requires high temperatures to overcome the repulsion between positively charged atomic nuclei.


Why doesn't nuclear fusion occur in the core of planets?

Nuclear fusion requires extremely high temperatures and pressures, which are typically found in stars like the Sun. The cores of planets do not have the same conditions necessary for sustained fusion reactions to occur, so the fusion process is not able to take place there.

What take an extremely high temperature for nuclear?

Nuclear fusion requires extremely high temperature and great pressure.


What takes an extremely high temperature for nuclear what?

Nuclear fusion reactions require extremely high temperatures, typically in the range of 100 million to 150 million degrees Celsius, in order to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged atomic nuclei and allow them to fuse together. This extreme heat is needed to create the conditions necessary for the fusion process to occur and release energy.


How is your sun powered?

The Sun is powered by nuclear fusion which requires extremely high temperatures to happen. Hydrogen is fused into helium releasing incredible amounts of energy which is counteracted by gravity.

It takes an extremely high temperature for nuclear to occur inside the sun?

Not nuclear, it takes an extremely hight temperature for Fusion to occur with in the sun or any other star. ADDED: Yes "nuclear". Fusion is one of the two type of nuclear reaction, the other being Fission.

Which is the more difficult process for humans to perform fission or fusion why?

Fission. Fusion can be achieved at room temperature and pressure , Fission (seems to) requires extremely high temps and pressures.

Why is nuclear fusion so difficult to achieve?

Nuclear fusion is difficult to achieve because it requires extreme conditions of temperature and pressure to overcome the repulsive forces between atomic nuclei. Additionally, containing and controlling the high-energy reactions involved in fusion is a major technical challenge.


What are the technical problems related to nuclear fusion?

Nuclear fusion requires very high temperatures and immense pressures to start and continue. The problems with a nuclear fusion reactor would be:- 1) the high temperatures would melt the container: therefore, the reaction would have to be stored in a vacuum suspended by a magnetic field and the reactor would have to be continually cooled. 2) nuclear fusion occurs naturally in stars such as our sun: unless the fusion reaction was limited in size in some way, it would be likely that our planet is vapourised by the reaction.
