Hey mate..
=========

▪Nuclear energy is the energy in the nucleus of an atom. Atoms are the smallest particles that can break a material. At the core of each atom there are two types of particles (neutrons and protons) that are held together. Nuclear energy is the energy that holds neutrons and protons.

▪Nuclear energy can be used to produce electricity. This energy can be obtained in two ways: nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fusion, energy is released when atoms are combined or fused together to form a larger atom.

▪ The sun produces energy like this. In nuclear fission, atoms are split into smaller atoms, releasing energy. Actually, nuclear power plants can only use nuclear fission to produce electricity.

▪When one of these two physical reactions (nuclear fission or nuclear fusion) success, atoms experiment a slight loss of mass. This mass lost generates a big amount of heat energy, explained by Albert Einstein with his famous equation E = mc^2

Answer:

hey mate here is your answer....

Explanation:

▶️ Nuclear Energy

➡️ Energy contained in the nucleus of atom is called nuclear energy. It is released during a nuclear reaction. A reaction in which composition of the reacting nuclei changes to form new elements with a simultaneous release of large amount of energy is called a nuclear reaction.

__________________________________________________________________

  • A reaction in which two or more lighter nuclei fuse to form a heavy nucleus and large amount of energy is released is called Nuclear fusion reaction.
  • A heavy nucleus splits into two or more smaller nuclei. It is bombarded with slow moving neutrons due to which large amount of energy is released called Nuclear fission reaction.
