What takes a extremely long time to occur inside the sun?
Nuclear fusion reactions take an extremely long time to occur inside the sun. These reactions involve the conversion of hydrogen into helium through a series of complex processes, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. This process can take millions to billions of years to complete, powering the sun and providing energy for life on Earth.
Does nuclear fusion happen in the convection zone?
No, nuclear fusion does not occur in the convection zone of a star. Fusion reactions primarily take place in the core region of a star, where the temperature and pressure are high enough to sustain the nuclear reactions that power the star. The convection zone is a region of the star where heat is transported through the movement of gas, but fusion does not occur there.
Do nuclear materials occur naturally?
Yes, that is where we get the nuclear material for our reactors, by mining it from the Earth. Though it does not occur in high concentrations, we have to concentrate it ourselves.
Does nuclear fusion occur at a low temperature?
No, normally it occurs at temperatures of millions of degrees. It does occur at room temperature, but not in significant amount; any possible practical use of "cold fusion" is, so far, speculation.
Why does the liquid inside the tube of a thermometer goes up and down?
The liquid inside a thermometer rises and falls due to changes in temperature. When the temperature increases, the liquid expands and moves up the tube, indicating a higher temperature. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the liquid contracts and moves down, reflecting a lower temperature. This expansion and contraction occur because the liquid, often mercury or colored alcohol, is sensitive to temperature changes.
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.
What is the temperature required for nuclear fusion to occur?
The temperature required for nuclear fusion to occur is around 100 million degrees Celsius.
Why does nuclear fusion not occur on earth?
Because the conditions of temperature and pressure that occur in stars do not occur on earth
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.
At 15.6 million degrees Celsius the temperature of the Suns core is high enough for nuclear what to occur?
For nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion can only occur in areas of?
In areas of high temperature and high pressure

What changes occur when temperature and pressure inside Earth's crust change?
Deformation occurs
What is a dangerous condition caused by overheating inside a nuclear reactor?
A dangerous condition caused by overheating inside a nuclear reactor is called a nuclear meltdown. This occurs when the reactor core is unable to be cooled and may result in a breach of the containment structures, releasing radioactive material into the environment.
What type of reaction happens inside a nuclear plant?
A nuclear chain reaction nuclear fission
What is fission temperature?
Fission temperature refers to the temperature at which nuclear fission reactions can occur. For uranium-235, which is commonly used in nuclear reactors, the optimal fission temperature is around 572°F (300°C). Controlling the fission temperature is crucial for maintaining the stability and efficiency of a nuclear power plant.
How is it that radioactive decay has always warmed the earth from the inside and nuclear fusion has always warmed the earth from the outside?
That's because of where each of these processes occur. There is no nuclear fusion inside of Earth. There is probably a small amount of radioactive decay in the Sun, but the power produced by it is insignificant, compared to the huge amount of power produced by nuclear fusion.
