This would provide electrical energy sufficient to power a small electric motor.
Nuclear fission is a process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy.
Nuclear fission involves the splitting of a heavy nucleus into lighter ones, while nuclear fusion involves the combining of light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus.
The source of energy in both nuclear fission and fusion is the conversion of mass into energy, according to Einstein's famous equation E=mc².
Nuclear fission is commonly used in nuclear power plants to generate electricity, while nuclear fusion has the potential to provide a virtually limitless source of clean energy.
The main risks associated with nuclear fission are the release of radioactive material and the potential for accidents or meltdowns. In nuclear fusion, the main risk is the difficulty of controlling the extremely high temperatures and pressures required for the reaction to occur.
