In normal fission reactors, the fuel used to start the nuclear fission is Uranium-235.
Generally, fuel rods enriched with uranium-235 are used to start the fission. When a nucleus of uranium-235 absorbs a neutron, it becomes unstable and then it breaks apart, producing two smaller nuclei, several neutrons and energy. The additional neutrons produced in the reaction are then absorbed by other nuclei of uranium-235, triggering other fission reactions, and so on.

During the power stroke energy released by combustion generates the force that:_______.

Inessa05 [86]

Explanation:

An IC engines means an Internal Combustion engine. Here, the combustion takes place in side a chamber or a cylinder internally, hence it is known as internal combustion engine.

Combustion is the process where oxygen reacts with the fuel and it burns to produce a large amount of force and heat. In each revolution of the crank, the engine creates a power stroke when the piston goes from the bottom dead center to the top dead center.

During each power stroke, the energy released forces the piston down and the crankshaft is rotated.
