Flashcards on Nuclear Fusion in Russia
Click on the flashcard to see the answer
What is nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fusion is a process in which two or more atomic nuclei come together to form a larger nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy.
What is the role of Russia in nuclear fusion?
Russia has made significant advancements in nuclear fusion research, contributing to the development of fusion reactors.
Name a fusion reactor project in Russia.
One example of a fusion reactor project in Russia is the ITER project.
What are the benefits of nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fusion has the potential to provide abundant clean energy without harmful waste products.
What is the main challenge in achieving nuclear fusion?
The main challenge in achieving nuclear fusion is controlling and sustaining the high temperature and pressure required for fusion reactions.
How does nuclear fusion differ from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion involves the merging of atomic nuclei, while nuclear fission involves the splitting of atomic nuclei.
What is a tokamak?
A tokamak is a device used to confine and control plasma in order to achieve nuclear fusion.
Name a country that heavily invests in nuclear fusion research.
One country that heavily invests in nuclear fusion research is China.
What is the potential of nuclear fusion in providing sustainable energy?
