Question
Why high temperature is required for Nuclear fusion?

Answer

Fusion reaction takes place at temperatures around $10^7k.$ It requires this high temperature so that nucleus start moving at rapidly speed, which in turn increases their kinetic, so that they overcome the repulsion between them and can come together.
