it costs 99 sents.
When operating, a nuclear power plant needs about 750,000 gallons of water per minute! When being shut down (as in the case of an emergency) the cooling operation requires about 25,000 gallons per minute.
Generally, not. The reactor pressure vessel is too radioactive to handle and, even if you could do that, the contamination of the various plant systems would cost too much to properly decontaminate. Only one facility has been successfully decontaminated after operation - and that was the Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant in New York - but it only operated for the equivalent of one day at 5% power - a normal plant with long term operation history would never be able to be adequately decontaminated and allowed to be "walked away from".
atleast $84,880 per year
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.
India have 20 nuclear reactors & 5 is in under development ....!!!!
Merits of Nuclear Reactor are 1 Pollution Free 2 Environment friendly Demerits End products from Reactors need to be preserved safely and Preservation of Reactors cost much .
Depending on: - the type of the nuclear reactor - the electrical power of the nuclear reactor - the type of the nuclear fuel - the enrichment of uranium - the estimated burnup of the nuclear fuel etc.
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.
billions of dollars
It would be used as a more efficient version of a Nuclear Reactor. While a regular nuclear reactor requires almost a factor of 100 greater in fuel amounts, a Breeder reactor uses much less and produces less waste.
Up to 1500MWe per reactor
Depending on the type and the power of the nuclear reactor. An example; a CANDU type reactor of 700 MW need 700 kg uranium-235 and only ca. 500 kg are "burned".
Well...I cannot say about how much has been the money spent on nuclear arms worldwide but nuclear weapons have cost the United States at least $5.48 trillion since 1940....!!
In a nuclear bomb temperatures of 10 million centigrade or more are produced. In a nuclear reactor temperatures of 100 centigrade to about 1000 centigrade are produced depending on type and design of reactor.
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.
