Fusion, Fission, and Energy in Nuclear Equations - IB Physics

[phosphor]

ive been searching around for how fusion works, and almost every video is just some 7th grade explanation, finally i found a video like this!

thanks i got a test in like 20 mins im cramming so hard lmao this was helpful

This is such a good explanation with easy to understand visual presentations. Thanks a lot for this video!

God bless people like him who don’t yap

Not sure if I understand completely, but definitely helped a bit!

i dont understand example problem 2. The energy is being released, so why not add the released one with the energy after the decay to find the energy before the decay? Because the energy before the decay is before the energy was released

Few sites like this video describe why iron atoms are the dead end of star core fusion to produce heavier atoms.

at 0:43 you mentioned that " the binding energy is the energy individual nucleons have released in order to bond". i think that is incorrect. what you said is true for the binding energy per nucleon. binding energy is the energy that holds the nucleus together which is proportional to the mass defect. binding energy can also be defined as the minimum energy that is required to separate the nucleons. please correct me if im wrong

thank you so much!! this was so helpful

Tbh ur not that good of a teacher but still u gave useful information(i think) its just thay u went very quickly and didn't explain in detail about some of ur steps but other then that ty for this vid
