It produces about 19 percent of total national electricity and this can be expanded without having to rely on polluting fossil fuels.
Nuclear energy is used to raise steam to drive a steam/generator to produce electricity
There are no pros or cons of nuclear fission, it simply IS. Nuclear fission is a natural phenomena that has always existed, no matter how much one likes or dislikes it.However there are pros and cons to how humans choose to use or not use nuclear fission; the technologies we choose to build with it.
If it is stored in the nucleus, it must be nuclear energy.
Sun provides us energy by process of nuclear fission reaction.
Yes, nuclear energy is energy.
Nuclear energy ! pros- causes almost no green house gasses, & pollution. cons-can cause melt downs.
better for the enviorment
Nuclear energy does and does not benifit us. It benifites us my giving us a huge amount of energy(electricity)! One gramp of split Uranium or Plutonium can gives the same amount of energy as 20 tons of burned coal! However, people use this immense energy to raze places. Only 10 kilograms of plutonium is needed to make an Atomic Bomb. Summary: Nucler energy has pros and cons
The kWh produced by nuclear energy is the cheapest. It is a clean energy that does not pollute the environment. It gives chance for people to work during its construction and operation. It is reliable source of energy.
Pro- Lots of energy Con- Hard to contain
The USA started using nuclear energy in 1951
No. About 20% of the US electrical energy supply is from nuclear power.
Nuclear energy is used to raise steam to drive a steam/generator to produce electricity
Uranium is important in nuclear energy.
Yes, the United States gets about 20% of its energy from Nuclear Power.
Saying nuclear energy is like saying Norwegian furniture. Nuclear power/energy is used everywhere, in 2009 20% of all electricity in the US was nuclear origin.
it is there. it can be. it doesn't have to be.
