Spent uranium is used for armor piercing rounds. Enriched uranium is used in the production of plutonium that is used in the cores of nuclear weapons.
Pure Uranium is radioactive; thus harmful. Inside a nuclear reactor, atoms get split. When the Uranium atom is split, it releases a huge amount of energy. This energy is called nuclear energy. Also the normal Uranium is not used in reactors. The Uranium that is used is enhanced; it is an isotope of Uranium. Uranium-237 and Uranium-238 are used in nuclear reactors. I hope this answer was useful for you.
The uranium used in the Hiroshima atomic bomb came from the Oak Ridge facility in Tennessee, where it was enriched as part of the Manhattan Project. The uranium used was the isotope uranium-235, which was extracted and purified from natural uranium ore.
Uranium is not used for the radiations emitted.
