What energy is the energy that is stored in an atoms nucleus?
The energy stored in an atom's nucleus is nuclear energy. This energy is released through processes like nuclear fusion or fission, which involve manipulating the nucleus of an atom to release large amounts of energy.
Which energy source generates radioactive waste?
Nuclear energy generates radioactive waste in the form of spent nuclear fuel, which contains radioactive isotopes. This waste must be stored and managed properly due to its long-term hazardous nature.
What energy resource produces solid wastes that must be stored in isolation for long periods?
Nuclear energy produces solid radioactive wastes that require isolation for long periods to prevent environmental contamination and public health risks.
Which plants create waste that must be stored indefinitely?
Nuclear plants
What happens to nuclear energy before it is used?
Nuclear energy is released as heat in the fuel of a nuclear reactor, but only when the reactor has been brought to criticality and the chain reaction started. At that point the heat must be used, it can't be stored and used later. Before criticality is established, the reactor is shutdown and producing no nuclear heat from fission, so you could regard it as having potential nuclear energy in that state
What does emc2 have to do with radiation?
E = MC2 is simply a formula for how much energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom. To release this energy the strong nuclear force must be broken, which produces a huge amount of energy. Radiation is a byproduct of this process.
Why must energy be stored in small amounts?
because energy is stupid and you are to
Is energy stored in gasoline is an example of kinetic energy?
No, energy stored in gasoline is an example of potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work. Gasoline must be burned to release the energy stored within it, converting it into kinetic energy.
How is nuclear energy sustainable?
nuclear energy is produced by taking advantage of natural decay in large nuclei of atoms. atoms with large enough nuclei can only be produced by very large scale nuclear fusion such as stars during a supernova, and making it on earth would take enormous amounts of energy. So no, nuclear energy is not totally sustainable, but a small amount of fuel lasts a long time. For this reason energy can be stored by scientifically making large nuclei atoms and utilizing them later.
You nuclear wastes must be stored for centuries to prevent dangerous radioactivity from escaping?
Yes
