Most uranium is U-238, with has a very long halflife. Bombard it with neutrons (fast breeder reactor) to make plutonium-239, which is a suitable fuel for a fission reactor. Lift it up high, and tie a rope to it. As it falls, have it drive a generator. Same scenario, only drop it into a black hole... get lots more energy.

What affects does nuclear energy have on natural resources?
The natural resource of nuclear energy is uranium. Uranium is abundant everywhere on earth. However, the cost of its extraction is the limiting factor for the feasibility of any uranium resource. Among the countries with high uranium resources are Australia, Canada, Kazakhstan, Niger, Chad, and South Africa.
What are ways you use energy?
there are many ways in which we can use energy this includes: :)
Are uranium pellets used in fuel rods that provide the energy for nuclear reactors?
Yes, many reactors use uranium as their nuclear fuel, but some use plutonium or a uranium-plutonium mix.
What is the possibility of uranium as future source of energy?
The energy of the nuclear fission is transformed in heat or electricity.The use of nuclear fuels is profitable on long term.
Most nuclear power plants use what atoms to make nuclear energy?
Heat, which is used to produce steam, which is used to turn a steam turbine-powered generator, which is used to produce electricity.
Ways you turn uranium into energy you can use?
Under nuclear fission with thermal neutrons uranium release an enormous quantity of energy (202,5 MeV per one atom of 235U); the obtained heat is converted in electricity.
What kind of energy use uranium?
Nuclear energy sometime uses uranium for its energy source.
What kind of energy do we use for uranium in use in the fusion power plant?
Uranium has stored energy (potential energy), more specifically, nuclear energy.
What are two ways to use energy?
geothermal energy is used directly for heating and to turn turbines to geberate electrictity.

How would you help maximize the the use of energy in our society?
by conserving it, we must not waste the energy , turn off the lights when not in use, and many more ways.
How does nuclear energy extracted from the ground?
We use uranium and products derived from it as our source of nuclear energy. Uranium ores must be mined from underground.
Uranium was use in the development of the?
Nuclear energy Nuclear weapons
A natural resource that people use to make energy?
Uranium
What are ways you use energy?
there are many ways in which we can use energy this includes: :)
What are the ways in conserving fuels?
how can we save fuel ? easy you can easily dont turn on the air condition
How we turn uranium into energy?
Use it to boil water, the rising steam turns a turbine that creates electricity thanks to electromagnetic induction ( creating electricity using magnets and coils of wire
