What are some Sources of nuclear energy?
Uranium and plutonium
What Metal used in nuclear reactions?
Nuclear energy appears as heat in a nuclear reactor. It comes from the fission of uranium or plutonium
What fuel is used in nuclear power plants?
A nuclear reactor is a device to initiate, control, and sustain a nuclear chain reaction. Nuclear power is energy produced from controlled nuclear reactions. When it comes to just standard fuel across the table it would have to be: Plutonium, Uranium, and Thorium.
What Power plant that uses uranium as a source of energy?
Uranium (or plutonium) is a source of energy (nuclear fuel) in nuclear power plants.
What caused nuclear energy to be produced?
Basically, the fission or splitting of the nucleus of Uranium 235 or Plutonium 239, which releases a large amount of thermal energy
Are uranium pellets used in fuel rods that provide the energy for nuclear reactors?
Yes, many reactors use uranium as their nuclear fuel, but some use plutonium or a uranium-plutonium mix.
What is available other than uranium?
For the nuclear energy: thorium and plutonium
What type of energy source does nuclear energy require?
uranium, plutonium,etc etc
How is uranium used in a power plant?
Yes, they import it and put it in the reactor core where rods slow down the energy given off then it turns a generator which creates power
What are the top two elements used to produce nuclear energy?
Uranium and plutonium
What kind of energy is produced when particle of metal are split into two?
Nuclear energy is released when uranium or plutonium nuclei are fissioned (split). Not clear what you mean by "particle", but nuclear energy only comes from a nuclear process, not a mechanical or chemical one.
What elements are used to provide nuclear energy?
Mostly uranium. Plutonium can also be used, often a mixture of uranium and plutonium oxides (MOX) is used.
