3. Explore: Nuclear fission does not always result in the same products. Click Reset, and then launch
another neutron. Record
your observations and repeat this process. What are the three fission
reactions modeled in this Gizmo
, and how much energy does each produce? (You may have to
repeat the reaction more
than three times to get three different reactions.) When you are done
gathering the data, calculate the
average.
