The release of excess binding energy.


How is uranium made in to energy we can use?

Uranium-235 react with thermal neutrons in a nuclear reaction called fission. The enormous energy released by the nuclear fission can be transformed in electricity and heat in nuclear reactors.


Nuclear weapons in which enormous energy is released by nuclear fission?

During the detonation of a nuclear bomb an enormous amount of energy is released as fission due to the splitting (fissioning) of atoms of uranium or plutonium. In the case of a simple nuclear weapon (such as those dropped on Japan during World War 2) this is where the explosion stops. In the case of a hydrogen bomb, also referred to as a thermonuclear weapon, the energy released by the fission is used to trigger the fusion of atoms of hydrogen, releasing energy in the same way that the sun produces energy.
