उत्तर

Nuclear fusion is not being used to meet day to day energy needs because extremely high temperature and pressure is required to initiate the nuclear fusion. Such an extremely high temperature and pressure can not be achieved in daily life in a controlled way.

Assertion (A): In the process of nuclear fission, the amount of nuclear energy generated by the fission of an atom of uranium is so tremendous that it produces 10 million times the energy produced by the combustion of an atom of carbon from coal.

Reason (R): The nucleus of a heavy atom such as uranium, when bombarded with low energy neutrons, splits apart into lighter nuclei. The mass difference between the original nucleus and the product nuclei gets converted to tremendous energy.
