Strong force
The amount of energy released during nuclear fission reactions is primarily determined by the mass difference between the initial nucleus and the fission products. This mass difference is converted into energy according to Einstein's mass-energy equivalence principle (E=mc^2). Additionally, the way in which the fission process is initiated and controlled can also impact the amount of energy released.
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.
Splitting of atom
No, nuclear reactions refer to any processes involving changes in the nucleus of an atom, which includes both nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear fusion specifically refers to the process where two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy.
nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
The greatest amount of energy released is due to the fission (atomic bomb) or fusion (hydrogen bomb) reaction after the the weapon is detonated by one of several means (gun-type trigger, implosion, or boost method). Fission reactions are responsible in most detonations for the greatest amount of energy released; this is due to the fact that hydrogen bombs (fusion) use fission explosions as a detonator, and that the fusion process can also cause further fission reactions.

Nuclear energy is released during nuclear reactions, such as nuclear fission in power plants or nuclear fusion in the sun. This energy is harnessed to generate electricity or create powerful explosions in nuclear weapons.
The force of attraction between the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, known as the strong nuclear force, is responsible for binding these particles together. When a nucleus splits in a nuclear fission reaction, the strong nuclear force is overcome, releasing a large amount of energy.

Uranium may suffer nuclear reactions, nuclear fission, nuclear decay.
No, nuclear reactions refer to any processes involving changes in the nucleus of an atom, which includes both nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear fusion specifically refers to the process where two atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy.
