Check out Fission and Fusion and find out how we can get energy both from splitting an atom and from joining them together!
Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts, often producing free neutrons and lighter nuclei, which may eventually produce photons (in the form of gamma rays). Fission of heavy elements is an exothermic reaction which can release large...
An explanation of how fission and fusion work
www.facebook.com ... Physics (Chapter 1): Fission And Fusion. --- Please SUBSCRIBE to Science & Reason: • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com --- Consider the earth and a rocket ship which are bound together by gravity. If it takes work or energy to pull them apart, then the bindi...
An array of 138 mousetraps are set off in a chain reaction. Ping-pong balls help visualize both neutrons and the release of energy. Shot in 600 fps and 1000 fps. Thanks to Rob for letting us use the camera. For more details on our setup see sciencedemonstrations.fas.harvard.edu Like us on Faceboo...
This was an assignment for AP Chemistry class at Horizon Science Academy Cleveland high school ( www.hsas.org ). The students collaborated with the school's video club in order to make the movie. There are only about 300 traps with 600 balls in this video. We plan on going bigger soon. Special Th...
www.FreeScienceLectures.com Neutron slams into the nucleus of a heavy element which causes a nuclear fission creating two ligher elements (fission products) and more free neutrons. These free neutrons are absorbed by other heavy elements which creates a chain reaction. --- It's Never too Late to ...

This is a few minutes of the late stages of euglena undergoing binary fission. Flagellate formed, but animals moved away before final separation occurred
A classic scene from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty for ps2. The game acts as if you've been killed, but the "Mission Failed" is replaced with "Fission Mailed" and you're still playing the game in the small viewing window. Explaining for those who haven't gotten this far. You just entered th...
Illustration of the binary fission process
This is my first animation in Blender, a 3d modeling program. It shows a neutron hitting Uranium, which then splits into Xenon and Strontium, releasing 3 neutrons in the process. The video is for my Energy Panel for Science. If you want the .blend files, PM me and I'll post them on a sharing serv...
