What else can I help you with?
What is an energy that we do not get from the sun?
Nuclear energy (ie that produced on earth from uranium)
What are some Sources of nuclear energy?
Uranium and plutonium
What type of energy in a uranium in reactors?
This is the energy of nuclear fission.The energy of fission is gigantic by comparison with the energy of fossil fuels.
Compare the energy produced during fission of a uranium atom with the energy produced from combustion of carbon atom from coal?
The energy density of Uranium is 2,715,385 greater than an equal amount of coal
Nuclear energy is an alternate energy produced by?
The fission of uranium-235 nuclei
What is an alternate energy source produced from the fission of uranium atoms?
This form of energy is the nuclear energy.
What kind of energy uses as a fuel?
Nuclear energy is produced using uranium as a fuel. The energy produced is in form of heat energy which is used to produce electrical energy.
Four energy sources?
Coal, oil, natural gas, uranium
Is it true or false that the amount of energy produced for each kilogram of uranium is about the same as the amount of energy from a kilogram of coal?
False. The amount of energy produced for each kilogram of uranium is significantly higher than the amount of energy from a kilogram of coal. Uranium has a much higher energy density compared to coal, making it a more efficient and powerful source of energy.
What is the power produced by splitting uranium atoms to release their energy called?
The power produced by splitting uranium atoms to release energy is called nuclear power. This process is known as nuclear fission, where the nucleus of a uranium atom is split into smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat.
What is the definition of uranium energy?
Uranium energy refers to the energy produced through the process of nuclear fission of uranium atoms. This energy is harnessed in nuclear power plants to generate electricity. It is a form of low-carbon energy but comes with concerns related to nuclear waste disposal and safety.
How much energy produced in fission of an atom of uranium compair to an carbon atom?
The energy produced by fission of a uranium atom is millions of times greater than that produced by a carbon atom. Uranium fission releases a large amount of energy due to its high nuclear binding energy per nucleon, whereas carbon fission releases only a fraction of that energy. This difference in energy release is the basis for the use of uranium in nuclear power plants.
