What energy comes from the nuclei of uranium atoms?
Nuclear energy
What is the relationship between solar energy produced by the sun to nuclear energy your facilities use?
Energy produced in the sun arises from nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei, whilst nuclear energy used in power plants comes from fission of uranium nuclei. They are very different.
Where does nuclear power receive its energy?
The energy of nuclear power comes from the binding energy that holds an atomic nucleus together. A heavy nucleus, usually uranium-235, splits into two smaller nuclei and releases three neutrons. These new nuclei have less binding energy than the original, and the excess energy is released as heat.
What energy comes from nuclei of uraniums atoms?
nuclear energy
What kind of energy is produced when particle of metal are split into two?
Nuclear energy is released when uranium or plutonium nuclei are fissioned (split). Not clear what you mean by "particle", but nuclear energy only comes from a nuclear process, not a mechanical or chemical one.
Where the energy in a nuclear reactor comes from?
Excess binding energy of the uranium nucleus.
Is nuclear burned?
Nuclear energy as obtained in nuclear reactor power plants comes from the fission or splitting of the nuclei of uranium and plutonium. It is not a chemical burning process and does not need any other elements to make it happen.
Where does nuclear comes from?
Nuclear reactors.
Are atoms renewable energy sources?
Yes. Hydrogen is. ( if it comes from water) NO Uranium is nor
Where does the energy for geothermal nuclear and tidal come from?
1. Geothermal - comes from the earth's internal heat. Opinions differ somewhat on where this comes from, but it seems to be accepted that this is partly heat left from the very hot rocks the earth was formed from, and partly from radioactivity deep in the earth. 2. Nuclear - comes from fission of nuclei of uranium and plutonium, which releases energy because mass is destroyed. 3. Tidal - comes from gravitational effects of the sun and moon on the oceans
How is nuclear energy different from geothermal energy?
Geothermal energy comes from hot rock layers not far below the Earth's surface. Nuclear energy comes from changes in nuclei of certain elements. They are not related in any way
What type of energy comes from nuclear uranium atoms?
Uranium is an element, not energy. It can be converted into energy by nuclear fission.
