A gas centrifuge is a device used to separate isotopes of certain elements, most commonly uranium, by using the principle of centrifugal force. It is primarily employed in the process of enriching uranium for use as fuel in nuclear reactors or for the production of nuclear weapons. ### How It Works: 1. **Centrifugal Force:** The device spins at very high speeds, creating a strong centrifugal force that separates isotopes based on their mass.
