Cold fusion

which uses approximately one kilogram of plutonium could have the same explosive force as approximately 15 million kilograms of the conventional explosive TNT. There are two kinds of nuclear weapons, those made by fission energy and those made by fusion energy. The difference between these two ways are that in fission weapons, atoms are split. In a fission bomb the nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei, extra

goal to not repeat the same mistakes. Instead I strive to be extremely successful. I do so by declaring myself a future anesthesiologist or an orthopedic doctor. My passion for medicine abruptly occurred after the diagnosis of scoliosis, spinal fusion surgery, and multiple binge-sessions of Grey’s Anatomy. My character is strongly represented by my drive to force a smile on to other people and to empathize with others. Anesthesiology appeals the most to me due to the heroic men and women in my

million Kelvins. This is where nuclear fusion occurs, and a star is born. Nuclear Fusion Nuclear Fusion is a reaction where atomic nuclei come in contact with each other to form different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles. Due to the difference in mass between the reactants and the products, large amounts of energy is released. The difference in atomic binding energy between the atomic nuclei before and after the reaction fuel this energy. Nuclear Fusion is the process that powers active/dwarf

such source, nuclear fusion, is gaining increasing prominence in the energy world. The principles of nuclear fusion provide the opportunity of incredible energy production. This review covers the concepts, current prospects, and the challenges and future developments necessary for the realization of nuclear fusion as a power source. Tremendous research and development has already occurred into the realization of fusion. Two popular mechanisms are studied: Magnetic Confinement Fusion (MCF) and Inertial

My project is on neutron stars, a beautiful sight but deathly touch. Neutron stars are created when giant stars die in a supernovae. Their cores collapse with the protons and electrons essentially melting into each other to form neutrons. These objects were born from stars that have grow four times the size of the sun before exploding into a catastrophic supernovae. When formed they begin to rate in space, as they get smaller the speed in the spinning increases because of the conservation of angular

how stars work. stars are massive collections of mainly hydrogen atoms, within a stars core, nuclear fusion causes hydrogen atoms get crushed into helium atoms which releases a ton of energy, this energy comes in the form of radiation, this radiation pushes against gravity which makes a nice balance between the two. Balance is key For the star to maintain this balance it must maintain fusion within the core, however with much larger stars, the

On the periodic tables, there are 26 man-made elements out of 118 total elements. An isotope is a variation of an element with different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei that can have distinct properties that make them scientifically and industrially valuable. To make a stable element protons and neutrons should cancel each other out making for a more stable nucleus. To keep element making going labs will be upgraded to next-generation atomic colliders to create many different elements. To

Potato launcher, a cannon that does exactly what the name says it does. There are three different types of potato cannons, but they all have one thing in common. Which is all three-use pressure to propel the potato. The first type is combustion, which uses pressure from the explosion of gasses and other fuels to create pressure, which launches the projectile. The second method is pneumatic; this method releases a chamber full of compressed air an extremely fast rate. The last method of creating a

Persuasive Outline Topic: Fusion energy is the solution to the greenhouse problem: an excess of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. General Speech Goal: To persuade. Specific Speech Goal: To persuade my audience that fusion power is the best alternative to fossil fuels in the future. Introduction 1. Attention Getter: Have you ever wondered how the sun generates so much energy? How it seems to be burning forever with nothing fueling it? Well, its uses fusion power and I’m here to tell you today that

Informative Speech: Nuclear Energy Purpose: The purpose of this speech is to inform others about the production, utilizations and impacts of nuclear energy. I. INTRODUCTION A. Attention Getter: When most people think of nuclear energy, the first thing that comes to their minds is a devastating bomb explosion or a nuclear power plant meltdown. But, in reality, nuclear energy is a sustainable energy source that has an enormous variety of uses. B. Thesis: The uses of nuclear energy range from
