MCQ
The explosion of hydrogen bomb is based on the principle of:
- AUncontrolled fission reaction
- BNuclear fusion reaction
- CControlled fission reaction
- DPhotoelectric effect
✓
Answer
- Nuclear fusion reaction
Explanation:
Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come close enough to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles (neutrons and/or protons).
The difference in mass between the products and reactants is manifested as the release of large amounts of energy.
A hydrogen bomb derives its energy from this type of nuclear reaction.
