Depends on the output of the reactor, but new PWR's are rated at about 1500 MW (megawatts), so in one day would produce 1500 x 24 Megawatthours = 36,000 MWh

How much nuclear energy does Australia use?
In Australia they use no nuclear energy. They only have on reactor which is only used for medical purposes.
Why do scientist use uranium to produce nuclear energy?
These days, after 50 years of nuclear power, it is pretty routine, the scientific input is not much. Scientists are still involved in experimenting with different types of reactor and with nuclear fusion, to some extent with extending the life of plants and fuel used in them, and with waste from spent fuel.
How much uranium produces nuclear power?
The mass of uranium needed for a nuclear power reactor depend on the type and the power of this reactor. For a medium size reactor - 100 t.
How much energy does nuclear power plant makes in one day?
A typical PWR reactor has an electrical output of 1100 MWe, so in one day this would produce 1100 MWD or 26,400 MWhours or 26,400,000 KWh
Why does it take so much energy to produce a nuclear weapon?
Enrichment from 0.7% Uranium-235 to 93% Uranium-235 is a very energy intensive process no matter how it is done. Separating Plutonium from production reactor fuel pellets is expensive requiring special shielded remote control workstations.
How much energy can nuclear supply?
The latest PWR designs can produce 1600MW electrical from one reactor.
How much energy does a nuclear reactor use up each year?
A large nuclear power reactor will have a thermal output of about 3000 MW. If this runs all day every day it will therefore produce 3000 x 365 MWD (Megawattdays) of energy in a year.
How much power does a nuclear plant produce?
Up to 1500MWe per reactor
How much nuclear energy does Australia use?
In Australia they use no nuclear energy. They only have on reactor which is only used for medical purposes.
Is noise pollution a possible negative effect of nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy itself, in a nuclear reactor, does not produce noise. The associated steam turbine plant will produce some noise, but probably not much outside the plant boundaries. The exception would be when a turbine has suddenly shutdown and steam has to be blown off for a while, that would probably be heard for a mile or two.
How fast does a nuclear fusion reactor work?
Do you mean how much power does it produce? None are working as yet.
Can you make a real ark reactor?
An Ark reactor as currently describe in comic is very much like a Nuclear Fuel Cell. Possibly convert energy from Nuclear reaction to power. Possibly a plasma nuclear fusion reactor. I believe in the future it could be made. See the link and compare the similarity of fusion reactor and Ark reactor.
What is retentivity in nuclear energy?
You may mean 'reactivity'. In a nuclear reactor, this is the measure of how much above or below criticality the reactor state is, which effectively determines how fast the neutron flux increases or decreases.
Does nuclear fusion produce much less energy per atom than nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion produce energy 400 times more than nuclear fission for the same mass.
