What are some everyday examples of atomic energy?

Answer 1

Atomic energy? If you're talking about chemical energy (from the bonds between atoms) then anything on fire is an example. If you're talking about nuclear energy (from the nucleus in an atom) , that can be found in nuclear power plants or in the sun. There aren't really any everyday examples of nuclear energy because it takes a great deal of energy to manipulate atomic nuclei. Radioactive decay is another example of nuclear energy. So are cosmic rays that strike earth's atmosphere (mostly protons).

Answer 2

Some everyday examples of atomic energy include the production of electricity in nuclear power plants, the use of radioisotopes in medical imaging and treatment, and the generation of heat in some spacecraft and submarines.
