Nuclear Fission and Fusion _ GCSE Physics

The video tutorial explains how nuclear power plants generate energy through nuclear fission, a process of splitting large atomic nuclei like uranium or plutonium to release energy. It highlights the efficiency of nuclear fission compared to coal. The tutorial then contrasts this with nuclear fusion, where small atoms like hydrogen are fused to form helium, releasing even more energy than fission. The video emphasizes the potential of both processes in energy generation.
