What else can I help you with?
What type of reaction occurs when a thermonuclear bomb explodes?
A fusion reaction.
Has fusion energy been created?
Nuclear fusion was demonstrated on Earth in a particle accelerator called a cyclotron in the early 1930s, but no useful energy was produced. Fusion energy was also released during H-bomb testing by the US, USSR, UK, and France in the 1950's, but the resulting energy release was so brief that it could not be used as a practical source of energy.
What chemical reaction produces the sun and energy?
These are not chemical reactions but thermonuclear reactions.
What element is most likely to be produced during a nuclear fusion reaction?
helium-4
What is the source of the light shown in the solar system?
It all comes from thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen inside the sun.
The suns heat is produced by?
thermonuclear fusion and hydrogen becoming helium... :)
What element is created during thermonuclear reactions?
At the core of our sun, Helium is created by the thermonuclear fusion of Hydrogen.
What is thermonuclear fusion takes place?
It simply means that thermonuclear fusion happens.
Why can elements produced in the sun but not in the earth atmosphere?
The earth's atmosphere is not hot enough for thermonuclear fusion to take place.
Why are the high temperatures produced by the explosion of a fission bomb necessary to initiate fusion in a thermonuclear device?
On the order of 10 million K.
Why are the high temptress produced by the explosion of a fission bomb necessary fusion in a thermonuclear device?
The high temperatures produced by the explosion of a fission bomb are necessary for initiating the fusion reaction in a thermonuclear device because fusion reactions require extremely high temperatures and pressures to overcome the repulsive forces between positively charged nuclei. The fission explosion provides the energy needed to achieve these conditions, thereby allowing the fusion reaction to take place.
What nuclear energy is the sun powered by?
thermonuclear fusion
How did polaris produce energy?
By thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium.
What changes a protostar to a a full fledged star?
thermonuclear fusion
Can argon be turned into energy?
No. Other than through thermonuclear fusion.
What is the name of the energy process inside of the sun?
thermonuclear hydrogen fusion
What type of reaction occurs when a thermonuclear bomb explodes?
A fusion reaction.
