Question

Part F
The development of fusion energy has not been successful so far because of the high temperatures needed for fusion to occur. It’s not clear when we will have the technology to accomplish this. Do you think the government should continue to fund fusion research? Give your reasons.

Answer 1

Answer:

When hydrogen atoms fuse, the nuclei must come together. ... High temperature - The high temperature gives the hydrogen atoms enough energy to overcome the electrical repulsion between the protons. Fusion requires temperatures about 100 million Kelvin (approximately six times hotter than the sun's core).
