How is energy conserved when nuclear fission occurs?
When nuclear fission occurs, energy is conserved through the process of splitting an atom's nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. This energy can be harnessed to generate electricity in nuclear power plants.
Is energy conserved in a nuclear reaction?
Yes. Basically, energy is ALWAYS conserved. The popular saying, that in a nuclear reaction mass is converted to energy, is plainly wrong, since both mass and energy are conserved. Read about "mass deficit", for example in the Wikipedia, for more details.
Can you convert matter into energry?
Sort of. That's a common explanation for what happens in a nuclear reaction. But technically, both matter and energy are conserved - there is no more or less matter after the reaction, than before the reaction. Therefore, in such cases there is no matter-to-energy conversion. Read the Wikipedia article on "Mass deficit" or "Binding energy" for a more detailed explanation. There's no sort of about it. The meaning of Einstein's equation (E = mc2) is that matter and energy are interconvertible, and this happens all the time. What is conserved is mass-energy. Mass and energy are not conserved separately.
Is the fallowing sentence true or false during nuclear reactions mass is not convserved but engery is conserved?
False. Both mass and energy are conserved during nuclear reactions, according to the principle of mass-energy equivalence stated by Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2. This means that any changes in mass that occur during a nuclear reaction are accompanied by equivalent changes in energy and vice versa.
What is the Yield nucular weapon?
The yield of a nuclear weapon is its energy release, usually expressed in the weight of TNT that would release the same energy (e.g. kilotons, megatons). It depends strongly on type of bomb (fission or fusion) and many design details.
How is energy conserved when nuclear fission occurs?
When nuclear fission occurs, energy is conserved through the process of splitting an atom's nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. This energy can be harnessed to generate electricity in nuclear power plants.
What are the two quantities are always conserved in nuclear decay equation?
Energy and electrical charge are two quantities that are always conserved in nuclear decay equation.
Is energy conserved in a nuclear reaction?
Yes. Basically, energy is ALWAYS conserved. The popular saying, that in a nuclear reaction mass is converted to energy, is plainly wrong, since both mass and energy are conserved. Read about "mass deficit", for example in the Wikipedia, for more details.
What is a nuclear weapon in wich enormous energy is released by nuclear fission?
This nuclear weapon is called an atomic bomb or a nuclear bomb
I’m a nuclear reaction which of the following must be conserved?
In a nuclear reaction, mass and energy must be conserved. Nuclear reactions involve the conversion of mass into energy, following Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2, which states that mass and energy are equivalent.
Uses of nuclear energy in science?
nuclear energy is using the energy of science to be used as a weapon that has connections to science
What are nuclear weapon?
Nuclear weapons are weapons which are fueled by nuclear energy. Examples of weapons that can be fueled by nuclear energy are missile warheads and bombs.
What is a nuclear weapon in which enormous energy is released by nuclear fission?
A nuclear bomb or atomic bomb
How does the energy released by an earthquake compare to the energy of a nuclear weapon?
* Earthquake Richter 5.0 = 32 kilotons nuclear weapon, like was used at Nagasaki * Earthquake Richter 6.0 = 1 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.0 = 32 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.1 = 50 megaton nuclear weapon, Tsar Bomba, the largest nuclear weapon ever tested * Earthquake Richter 8.0 = 1 gigaton nuclear weapon, much larger than anything ever made
When metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava is matter conserved?
Yes, this is a simple physical change and matter is always conserved in these. In fact, matter is always conserved except in nuclear reactions where the sum of matter and energy is conserved.
In a nuclear reaction WHAT does not have to be conserved?
While overall ENERGY has to be conserved, MASS does not. In a nuclear reaction mass can be converted into energy so the mass of the products may be less than the mass of the reactants. The difference in mass is converted into energy as Einstein's equation describes (E=MC squared). In a chemical reaction MASS has to be conserved.
In a nuclear reaction mass must be lost to produce energy. true or false?
False. Both mass and energy are conserved.
