Write the general principle involved in generating nuclear energy. Name one fuel used in a nuclear reactor.

(N/A) The general principle involved in generating nuclear energy is nuclear fission. In this process, a heavy nucleus, such as $Uranium-235$ or $Plutonium-239$, is bombarded with slow-moving neutrons, causing it to split into smaller, lighter nuclei while releasing a tremendous amount of energy.
One common fuel used in a nuclear reactor is $Uranium-235$ $(U-235)$.
