What else can I help you with?
What is another term for maintained?
Sustained
What was the name of the nuclear power station that sustained heavy damage and cost many people their lives?
Chernobyl
What the meaning of sustainable?
Capable of being sustained or maintained; as, the action is not sustainable.
If something is nuclear power does it run out of energy?
No, nuclear power does not run out of energy like fossil fuels do. Nuclear power plants generate electricity by using uranium or thorium as fuel, which undergoes a process called nuclear fission to produce energy. As long as there is fuel available and the plant is properly maintained, nuclear power can continue to generate electricity indefinitely.
How is solar energy maintained or sustained?
Solar energy is maintained by ensuring proper upkeep and regular cleaning of solar panels to maximize sunlight absorption. It is sustained through advancements in technology that improve efficiency and storage capabilities of solar energy systems. Additionally, policies and incentives supporting the adoption of solar power help to ensure its long-term sustainability.
Where was the first sustained nuclear chain reaction achieved?
Chicago, 1942
The first sustained nuclear reaction occurred at which universty?
The University of Chicago.
What is artificial nuclear reactor?
An artificial nuclear reactor is a device that initiates and controls a sustained nuclear chain reaction. This reaction produces heat, which is used to produce electricity in nuclear power plants. The fission process in these reactors generates energy by splitting atomic nuclei.
If nuclear energy is renewable is it maintained or sustained?
It is not renewable. There is a fixed amount of fuel on earth and it cannot be increased. Even when people talk of breeder reactors, they are only breeding fissile fuel from non-fissile material, which is itself non-renewable.

How is electricity produced at a nuclear power plant?
Nuclear power is the use of sustained Nuclear fission to generate heat and do useful work. Heat from nuclear fission boils water to make steam, which pushes a turbine. The turbine generates electricity using a magnet through a process called electromagnetic induction.
What are examples of nuclear power?
nuclear power
