Nuclear learning

In my last writing i have given you some learning on anode and cathode rays. Now i have decided to share my knowledge on temperature of boiling water. So let us start learning with nuclear energy definition.

A physical reaction which involves changes in the atom nucleus  is known as  nuclear reaction. The energy released during a nuclear reaction is known as  Nuclear Energy. Examples of nuclear energy is power plants and submarines.

The word fusion meaning is combine or join. The process in which two nuclei of light elements join  to form a heavy nucleus, is known as nuclear fusion. A large amount of energy is produced during the process of fusion. 

The reaction in which a heavier nucleus atom is breakdown into a bombardment with neutrons into two or more nuclei of lighter atoms of almost equal size with producing large amount of energy is nuclear energy fission reaction
