Fission and Fusion
What do you mean by Fission and Fusion?
Expert
Fission: It is the breaking down of a Nucleus (that is, not atom) into the smaller nuclei. This is generally induced through a neutron.
For illustration, a Helium nucleus (termed as alpha particle) is divided into two 4He(+2) --> 2H(+1) + 2H(+1)
A huge amount of energy is discharged in the process.
Fusion: This occurs when two nuclei joins to form a big nuclei. A big amount of energy is required to start this. As it is not simple to bring two positively charged nuclei closer. Whenever they combine, a huge amount of energy is discharged.
For illustration: This generally occurs in the stars.
The energy needed to start the fusion comes from the gravitational force among the particles.
Coriolis pseudoforce (G. de Coriolis; 1835): The pseudoforce that arises since of motion relative to a frame that is itself rotating relative to the second, inertial frame. The magnitude of the Coriolis "force" is tot

a 6.00 kg mass is situated at (-1.00, 3.00) meters, what is its mass moment of inertia: a)about the x-axis b)about the y-axis c)About a line defined by x=6.00 m The same object is hun
Photoelectric effect: An effect described by A. Einstein that demonstrates that light seems to be made up of particles, or photons. The light can excite electrons (termed as photoelectrons in this context) to be ejected from the metal. Light with a fr
Dalton's law of partial pressures (J. Dalton): The net pressure of a mixture of ideal gases is equivalent to the sum of the partial pressures of its components; which is the sum of the pressures which each component would exert when it were present al
A dual-wavelength spectrometer uses 780 nm and 830 nm. The molar extinction coefficients for oxy-hemoglobin (HbO2) and deoxy-hemoglobin (Hb) at these two wavelengths are: e_HbO2_780nm = 710 cm-1M-1, e_Hb_780nm = 1075 cm
Le Chatelier's principle (H. Le Chatelier; 1888): When a system is in equilibrium, then any modification imposed on the system tends to shift the equilibrium state to decrease the consequence of that applied change.
Becquerel: Bq (after A.H. Becquerel, 1852-1908) - The derived SI unit of the activity stated as the activity of radionuclide decay at a rate, on the average, of one nuclear transition every 1 s; it hence has units of s-1.
Dulong-Petit law (P. Dulong, A.T. Petit; 1819): The molar heat capacity is around equivalent to the three times the ideal gas constant: C = 3 R
