Nuclear Fusion

Real World Example

Imagine trying to combine two small balls of dough to make one larger, more robust ball for baking. This is similar to nuclear fusion, where two small atomic nuclei merge to form a single, larger nucleus. Just as combining dough balls can create a larger, more useful piece of dough for your baking needs, when two atomic nuclei combine, they release energy, providing a more stable nucleus, much like creating a perfect dough ball ready for baking.
