Nuclear Energy
How it Works?
The nuclear energy can be obtained
by the fussion of two hydrogen atoms
or the fission of an lithium atom, In
those cases, bombs were activated by
the creation of an chemical process of
fission, which created a massive
amount of energy.
What was it used for in the war?
That massive energy was used in
order to erase entire cities from the
earth, for example USA, which were
the first ones using nuclear bombs,
bombed Hiroshima and 3 days later
Nagasaki.
Interesting fact
Nowadays, after nuclear bombs being
banned, scientists, are trying to use
nuclear energy as an alternative for
fossil fuels. Fission is being already
used, but it is very radioactive, that is
why people is investing more and
more on fussion projects as those ony
produce heat.
