Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Atomic energy is obtained from the atom. Every atom has in it particles of energy.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Energy holds the parts of an atom together. When the atom is split, this energy comes out.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) We can obtain energy from an atom in two ways : through
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Atom Atom When one single atom is made out of two atoms It is called “Fusion”.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Atom Atom Fusion releases a great amount of heat.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Atom Atom When one atom is split into two, it is called “Fission”.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) Atom Atom This is done by hitting atoms with neutrons. A neutron is a particle in an atom.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) It is difficult to split most of the atoms.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) But uranium and plutonium atoms can be split Under proper conditions. When uranium 235 Is hit with a neutron, it breaks into two fragments.
Atomic Energy (A`u xiKt) One kilogram of u-235 gives energy which is 10,00,000 times of Energy as obtained by burning one kilogram of coal. A small piece of Uranium could run a generator, a heavy train, a steamer or even a jet-plane.
Is the chief source of energy today, And it will be so in future, too.
