Nuclear fission happens when the strong nuclear force of an atom has been overcome. It releases a lot of heat, and this is typically used to boil water, to drive turbines, which turn the heat energy into mechanical energy, and this is used to power generators to make electricity.
No, fire is chemical energy not nuclear
Nuclear waste. Consumable Energy. Heat.
Nuclear energy is obtained by the fissioning of nuclei of uranium235, in a controlled chain reaction in a nuclear reactor, which produces heat that can be converted to electricity by normal power plant methods.
There are quite a few limiting factors for using nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is very expensive to produce for example.
Yes, that is how the nuclear energy is transferred to the turbine/generator
In the atomic nucleus.
Nuclear energy can be found most any where that matter exists. The sun is powered by nuclear energy. When atoms split or are combined energy is released and that is what we call nuclear energy. The splitting of atoms is called fission, and the fusing of atoms is calls fusion.
1. Nuclear energy is the result of nuclear fission of fissile nuclei as uranium-235, uranium-233, plutonium-239, etc. 2. Industrial nuclear energy has as source nuclear reactors.
nuclear power plant are found in plain areas around the world like in the USA creating nuclear energy
In the nucleus!
I'm not sure about nuclear energy, but wind energy is created when strong winds spin a wind turbine which creates energy :)
Electrical energy, in the triggering and fuzing mechanisms. Chemical energy, in the form of conventional explosives used to trigger the chain reaction. Nuclear energy, in the form of fissionable or fusable nuclear materials.
See 'www.world-nuclear.org' for a summary of nuclear plants country by country
Mainly that no good solution has been found to dispose of the nuclear wastes.
Firstly, this isn't really an entertainment or arts question. Secondly, the electrons don't contain nuclear energy, no. Nuclear energy is found within the bonds of an atom.
Nuclear energy is found everywhere in the world and is used for powering many things, like homes, and businesses. Mostly it is found in the eastern part of the US.
