a nuclear reactor uses: controlled fission, uncontrolled fission or fusion?
4 Responses
controlled fission
A nuclear reactor operates by the controlled fission of 235U. Fission occurs at a slow steady rate, rather than suddenly in a fraction of a second, as in a bomb. Fission produces heat, and this heat is used to generate electricity, in the same way that the heat of burning oil or coal generates electricity in a conventional power plant.
Dan nailed it!
Controled fission.
