Nuclear Fusion 0.0 / 5 ? PhysicsRadioactivityGCSEAQA Created by: asho glenoCreated on: 10-04-15 12:53 Two light nuclei can join to create... a larger nucleus 1 of 7 Fusion releases a lot of... energy (more than fission ) 2 of 7 Fusion doesn't leave a lot of... radioactive waste products like fission 3 of 7 It can only happen at really high temperatures of... 15000000 0c 4 of 7 At this temperature, the core forms a plasma of... atoms with their electrons stripped 5 of 7 The high temperatures give the nuclei enough... energy to overcome their electrostatic repulsion and fuse together 6 of 7 Would be an ideal energy source as it can be made from... sea water and lithium 7 of 7
