Why is nuclear energy not a fossil fuel what is it?
a non-renewable resource
Do fossil fuels have a higher or lower energy content than a similar mass of nuclear fuel?
Total energy as expressed in Einsteins equation E=mc2 reveals that they are identical because the masses are identical and c is a constant. With present technology you can extract more energy from a given mass of nuclear fuels (in a nuclear reactor) than the same mass of fossil fuel in a thermoelectric generating plant.
What are the differences between fossil fuels and nuclear fuels?
fossil fuel is made by the nature and nuclear fuel is not made by the nature
Is nuclear energy and nuclear fuel different?
Nuclear fuel is the fuel used to produce nuclear energy.
Why isn't nuclear fuel a fossil fuel?
Nuclear fuel is NOT produced by dead decomposed matter that has been around for millions of years old. Therefore, it is not categorized as a "fossil fuel".
Is nuclear a fuel or a fossil fuel?
Nuclear energy is not a fossil fuel or any fuel at all. Radiation is used to create energy. The energy is "the Fuel" petroleum
Which of these accurately describes a difference between nuclear energy and fossil fuel?
Nuclear fuel has a higher energy density than fossil fuels.
How does nuclear energy conserve fossil fuels?
Nuclear energy conserves the use of fossil fuel because if there is a nuclear power station there is no need to burn fossil fuel in that region.
Is fossil fuel nuclear energy?
No because fossil fuel is its own energy from decayed things just like nuclear has its own.
Is oil a nuclear energy?
No.Oil is a fossil fuel.
Is petrol nuclear energy?
No, it comes from fossil fuel
Is the use of nuclear energy to conserve energy feasible?
If you use nuclear energy in place of fossil fuels, you are conserving the fossil fuel, that is reducing the amount you use.
Solar energy fossil fuel water and nuclear?
What is the question?
Why is nuclear energy not a fossil fuel what is it?
a non-renewable resource
Is nuclear energy petroleum energy?
No, it is completely different. Petroleum is a fossil fuel
Is coal a nuclear or motion energy?
Coal is a fossil fuel, which possesses potential chemical energy. It is not nuclear or kinetic
How does nuclear energy differ from fossil fuels?
With fossil fuels we burn them to produce heat. With nuclear fuel we produce a nuclear chain reaction in a reactor which produces heat. Using the heat to produce electricity is the same for both types of fuel.
