Answer: Energy locked in the nucleus of an atom

Step-by-step explanation:

Nuclear energy is an energy which binds the constituents of nucleus of an atom together.

There are two types of nuclear reaction from which nuclear energy is produced:

  1. Nuclear fusion: Two small nuclei combine together to form stable nucleus with release in energy.
  2. Nuclear fission: One larger unstable nucleus splits into smaller stable nuclei with release in energy.
