Atomic energy By: Hiram A. Murray III Background info The origin of the phrase atomic energy check in from the years of 1905-10. It is defined as energy released by reactions within atomic nuclei‚ as in nuclear fission or fusion. Now a days it is referred to Nuclear energy. Nuclear power uses fission (splitting atom nuclei) to produce energy. Atom nuclei is also none as the nucleus (center of the atom). Around 6% of the world’s energy and 14% of the world’s electricity is produced by nuclear
