Hi my dear friend,
What are the two processes by which nuclear energy is released? Briefly describe the processes.
Ans: The two processes by which nuclear energy is released are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion occurs when two smaller atoms are combined into a larger atom.
~Thank you
Answer: Nuclear fusion and Nuclear fission
Explanation: Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.
Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.
The binding energy which is the energy which keeps the neutrons and protons intact in the nucleus is being released during nuclear reactions.
