Uranium was created in supernova explosions more than 7 billion years ago. The nuclear energy in this uranium is released by nuclear fission of the atomic nuclei in a neutron chain reaction.

What is the method of energy transformation of thermonuclear plants?
The method of energy transformation of thermonuclear plants begins with nuclear fission. The nuclear energy is then transformed to thermal energy. This energy is used to boil water which creates steam that spins a turbine. This turbine creates mechanical energy which when coupled with a generator creates electromagnetic energy, or electricity.
How is controlled nuclear fusion a source of energy for us?
it creates an explosion which obciously creates heat which allows a turbine to move through rapid water evaporation thus creating energy.
What process creates energy in the sun?
Nuclear fusion - the joining of two smaller atoms to form a larger atom.
How is uranium used in a power plant?
Yes, they import it and put it in the reactor core where rods slow down the energy given off then it turns a generator which creates power
What does nuclear fusion create inside of stars?
Inside the sun, nuclear fusion creates helium nuclei from...a. oxygen nuclei. b. beryllium nuclei.c. carbon nuclei.d. hydrogen nuclei.The answer is d. hydrogen nuclei.
What company creates nuclear energy?
One is Duke Energy
How does the sun creates its own energy?
Nuclear fusion.

What nuclear process creates the sun's energy?
It is a continuous nuclear fusion process between the hydrogen nuclei producing helium and energy.
How is wind or nuclear energy found or sourced?
I'm not sure about nuclear energy, but wind energy is created when strong winds spin a wind turbine which creates energy :)
What is main disadvantage of fusion?
It requires almost as much energy to create nuclear fusion as the energy it creates. :)
When matter creates a new matter?
Nuclear physicists have theorized that it is possible to transform matter into energy and energy into matter.
Does nuclear energy pollute the air?
Absolutely every form of energy we use creates pollution. Even solar and wind do. Nuclear though creates a waste that is very different from other forms of energy. This waste will be around for thousands of years and could kill on contact.
What is the nuclear fual in the sun?
The nuclear fuel of the sun is hydrogen. The Sun binds the hydrogen atoms into helium, which creates energy in the process.
Where and how is the Sun and radiant energy?
Nuclear fusion creates energy in the Sun's core and is radiated outward through the Sun's layers
What is the name of the metal that creates nuclear energy?
Hydrogen gives off radiation, but uranium is more known for it's nuclear radioactivity due to its use in nuclear reactors.
How is controlled nuclear fusion a source of energy for us?
it creates an explosion which obciously creates heat which allows a turbine to move through rapid water evaporation thus creating energy.
