Does nuclear power pollute?
Not really. You receive 100 times as much radiation from coal power plant pollution than you do from nuclear power plant leaks.
How much electricity does plutonium possess?
Your question is slightly off. You could ask how much energy plutonium has, since plutonium can be used as a fuel to run a nuclear power plant and to generate electricity (although the usual use of plutonium is to make atomic bombs - the normal fuel in nuclear power plants us uranium, not plutonium) but the element itself contains potential nuclear energy, not electricity. Nuclear energy can be converted into electricity. I will also note that it is can't be converted directly into electricity. It can be converted into heat, and the heat can be used to boil water to run a steam turbine which then generates electricity. In terms of usable energy content, I am not going to give you an exact equivalence, but it is possible to create something like a 50 kiloton explosion (one equal to the explosive force of 50,000 tons of dynamite) with about 30 pounds of plutonium. So it contains a lot of energy.
How much energy does plutonium produce in whats?
1. The isotope 238Pu: a power o,5 W for 1g. 2. For the nuclear fuels containing plutonium: this is another problem !
How much land does a nuclear power plant need?
alot:)
How much power does one nuclear power plant give off?
The power output of a nuclear power plant can vary, but on average, a typical nuclear power plant can produce around 1,000 megawatts of electricity. This is enough to power roughly 1 million homes.
How much plutonium is in 1 ton of nuclear waste?
The amount of plutonium in the nuclear waste depends on the type of waste and its origin. If by waste, it is meant the spent nuclear fuel discharged from reactor after irradiation, then the plutonium amount depends mainly on the nuclear fuel initial enrichment, the neutron irradiation flux, and the time of irradiation.In usually operated nuclear power reactors of light water reactors, the discharged spent fuel contains roughly 1 kg plutonium per ton of fuel.
How much TNT is in a Plutonium Bomb?
Nuclear weapons with plutonium don't contain TNT.
How much power does a nuclear plant produce?
Up to 1500MWe per reactor
How much money does a nuclear power plant make every year?
123412
How much did the plutonium device cost for the nuclear bomb?
The cost of the plutonium used in a nuclear bomb can vary greatly, depending on factors such as purity, quantity, and production method. However, estimates suggest that the plutonium used in a typical nuclear bomb could cost millions of dollars.
How much money does it take to set up a nuclear power plant?
1 plant takes 30million dollares
How much finished plutonium has been produced in the US?
As of 2020, the U.S. has produced approximately 100 metric tons of plutonium that has been separated from spent nuclear fuel. This plutonium is primarily used in nuclear weapons and reactor fuel.
