Nuclear energy is the energy that is released from the nucleus of an atom through processes such as nuclear fission or fusion. It is a powerful source of energy that can be harnessed to generate electricity in nuclear power plants. Despite its potential advantages in terms of low carbon emissions, nuclear energy also poses risks related to nuclear accidents and radioactive waste disposal.

Is necular energy renewable?
Nuclear energy is not considered a renewable energy source because it requires uranium fuel, which is a finite resource. However, nuclear power plants can generate electricity for a long period of time before needing to refuel.
Which has a necular charge?
I assume it's an incorrect spelling of "nuclear charge".
What is necular power?
"Nuclear power is a type of energy generated by splitting atoms in a process called nuclear fission to produce heat, which is then used to generate electricity. It is a form of low-carbon energy but comes with concerns related to safety, waste management, and the risk of nuclear accidents."
What are examples of what type of energy?
* thermal energy * chemical energy * nuclear energy * mechanical energy * magnetic energy * electrical energy * radiant energy * elastic energy * sound energy * luminous energy * gravitational energy
8 different types of energy?
here are some: -Linear Kinetic energy -Rotational Kinetic energy -Heat energy -Atomic energy -Electrical energy -Sound energy -Solar energy -Wind energy -Tidal energy -Wave energy -Hydro energy -Nuclear energy -Succesive ionization energy

What is the definition of necular energy?
Atomic energy is released during a nuclear reaction during fission or fusion. It is released by the nucleus of an atom and can also be a result of radioactive decay.
In a necular reaction what needs to be conserved?
The sum of mass and energy, the energy being related to mass by Einstein's equation e = mc2, where e is energy, m is mass and c is the speed of light in vacuum.
How sun get its light?
burns hydrogen by the action of necular fusion
Which has a necular charge?

What is necular arsenal?
A country's total number of atomic bombs, or even hydrogen bombs in stock
How does the sun create sun and light?
the sun creates light in a process called thermonuclear reactions.like, necular fusion.
What plan ended WW two?
The Necular or Atomic Bomb. Two dropped on Japan. One was dropped on Hiroshima, hope this helps you guys a little.
Why necular power stations are dangerous for the environment?
nuclear power stations r bad for the environment because they can leak waste into our enbvironment and then kill our trees and life and then we will have less oxygen and we will all DIE! o and if they go critical then we will a go BOOM BOOM
3 advantages nuclear fusion has over nuclear fission?
The binding energy (Strong Atomic Force) released is much greater when fusion occurs than when fission occurs. As an example, that is why fission bombs typically have yields around 100 to 500 kilotons of equivalent TNT, while fusion bombs typically have yields in the 25 to 50 megaton range. The problem is that fusion requires a lot of energy to initiate - in fact, most fusion bombs use a fission bomb to set them off.
How long does a necular power station last?
New stations normally get a 40 year licence from the NRC, but there is usually scope to extend this perhaps to 60 years later in life. Some components like steam generators can be replaced if required and economic to do so
