Yes, by introducing a neutron absorber such as boron. In a nuclear reactor this is done by inserting the control rods

Is the energy of nuclear fission released as heat?
Yes, as heat and radiation Nuclear fission actually releases first fission fragments and other particles with kinetic energy, which then turns to heat as the ejected fission fragments and part of the particles are slowed down within the mass of the solid fuel.
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
FISSION. nobody on this website knows the answer..... SHAME
What is the process of the production of lighter nuclei from heavier nuclei called. Nuclear radiation nuclear force fusion or fission?
Nuclear fission
What are other information about nuclear fission?
nuclear fission is the process of splitting atoms.
The energy from nuclear fission is released as heat?
Initially as kinetic energy of the fission fragments, but this is quickly converted to thermal energy as they are slowed down in the mass of the fuel.
Is The energy from nuclear fission is released as heat.?

What type of energy is nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is released in fission when a nucleus is split. A small proportion of the mass of the nucleus is annihilated and converted to free energy. Initially this appears as the kinetic energy of the fission fragments, this is quickly converted to thermal energy as the fragments are slowed down.
Where do you get nuclear fission?
You get nuclear fission in:nuclear fission reactorsatomic fission bombs

What type of reaction happens in a nuclear power plant?
Nuclear fission

How are nuclear fuels in power stations to generate electricity?
Think of a nuclear power station as a slowed down nuclear bomb. The heat energy released in the fission process is used to turn water into steam to drive electric turbine generators.
Occurs when a large nucleus splits releasing energy and two smaller nuclei?
Nuclear fission.
