What are the Positive effects of nuclear reactors?

They can produce electricity without producing CO2 or other undesired emissions such as sulphur dioxide.

Three positive effects that uranium has on the environment?

Using uranium in nuclear reactors the greenhouse effect is avoided.

How are nuclear reactors used in nuclear reactors?

Well, as nuclear reactors are nuclear reactors, nuclear reactors are not used inside nuclear reactors.

Why are fast neutrons not used in nuclear reactors to get nuclear energy?

Fast neutrons are used already in nuclear reactors that called fast nuclear reactors and/or fast breeder reactors.

What process do nuclear reactors use?

Nuclear reactors use nuclear fission.

Why do nuclear fusion reactors produce such large amounts of energy?

Nuclear fusion reactors do not exist yet as we don't know how to build them. All nuclear reactors are nuclear fission reactors.

Positive effects of nuclear power?

Nuclear power is a cleaner more efficient type of energy. Some other positive effects of nuclear power are that it is reliable and easy to transport.

Please elaborate on "they" as no comparison can be given otherwise. Do you mean?: "How is nuclear fusion different from regular nuclear reactors (nuclear fission?)"

Do fusion powers nuclear reactors?

No. Our reactors are fission reactors. We haven't yet mastered fusion reactors for power.

What are the three main advantages of a fusion reactor compared to a fission reactor?

Nuclear fusion reactors do not exist yet as we don't know how to build them. All nuclear reactors are nuclear fission reactors.
