Answer:

They are both nuclear reactions that produce energy.

  • Fission is the splitting of heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei.
  • Fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together (this process releases a vast amount of energy)

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy

Scrat [10]

Answer:

E = 12.92 × 10^(-16) J

Explanation:

Formula for energy is;

E = hc/λ

Where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10^(-34) J.s

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

λ is wavelength = 0.154 nm = 0.154 × 10^(-9) m

E = (6.63 x 10^(-34) × 3 × 10^(8))/(0.154 × 10^(-9))

E = 12.92 × 10^(-16) J
