Sort of.

Fusion energy is the power of the sun and hydrogen bombs,

lots of people would like to use it as a local power source,

but so far we've only figured out hot to use fission power in power plants.

How nuclear fusion differ to nuclear fission in terms of energy release?

Energy from nuclear fusion is around 400 times more than that of nuclear fission for same mass.


Is fusion nuclear energy or chemical energy?

Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy


What is combining nuclei of atoms to produce energy called?

That would be nuclear fusion, like what happens in stars, when two hydrogen nuclei combine to form a helium nucleus.


Outline on nuclear energy?

Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion


What does the stars have to do with nuclear energy?

Nuclear fusion is the process that powers stars, including our sun. The intense heat and pressure in the core of a star creates the conditions necessary for nuclear fusion to occur, releasing vast amounts of energy. Scientists are working on harnessing this same process for practical energy production on Earth through nuclear fusion reactors.


How does the source of the sun's energy compare with the process of nuclear fusion in the sun?

They are the same.


Is solar energy nuclear fission or fusion?

The process generating solar energy is one of nuclear fusion.


How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?

In nuclear fusion mass transforms into what?

In nuclear fusion mass transforms into energy.


How does the nuclear fusion generate energy?

The Sun energy is from hydrogen fusion.


How does nuclear energy relate to the sun?

We derive electromagnetic energy from the nuclear fusion reactions on the sun. We also apply nuclear energy (fission) on earth to generate lots of thermal energy, which we use in a steam cycle to generate lots of electric power.


Is nuclear fusion in the sun wind energy?

No, nuclear fusion in the sun is not wind energy. Wind energy is generated from the kinetic energy of moving air masses, while nuclear fusion in the sun is the process by which the sun produces energy through the fusion of hydrogen atoms into helium.
