Which element is used in rocket fuel?
Hydrogen
What is a radioactive element used for fuel in nuclear power plant?
Radioactive elements used for fuel include Plutonium -239 Uranium-235 and uanium-233.
The element used as a fuel component in nuclear reactors?
Uranium (U) Or Plutonium (Pu)
Why are fuel cells used on the space shuttle instead of batteries?
Two reasons:Weight. Batteries are heavier per energy unit than fuel cells.Capacity. Fuel cells can store much more energy than batteries.As a bonus, the weight for the fuel cell fuel reduces the weight of another required consumable: water. The "exhaust" of fuel cells is pure water which astronauts can drink.
What is used for nuclear feuls?
Uranium or Plutonium For reactor fuel any Transuranic element works fine.
What element and plutonium are used in nuclear reactors?
Uranium is the main fuel used, but in some countries a mixture of uranium and plutonium is also used (MOX fuel)
Which element is used in rocket fuel?
Hydrogen
What are fuel cells used for?
racing
What element used to kill cancer cells?
Californium

How do the cells of a multicellular organism function?
The main system that serves the needs of individual cells in multicellular organisms is the circulatory system. This is used to take waste away from individual cells and bring in new fuel such as proteins, glucose, and oxygen.
How are yeast cells in alternative fuel?
yeast can be used to ferment starch, the result alcohol can be used as fuel
What element is used as the primary fuel source for stars?
hydrogen
What can fuel cells be used for?
Anything that needs electricity can be fed from a fuel cell.Power vehicles
Are fuel cells a fossil fuel?
Fuel conversion cells are made from platinum and convert the material going through the device into heat and electric power (about equally). The element used is often hydrogen. Hydrogen comes from many places, but the practical commercially viable method in use is from stripping all other elements from natural gas. This means that the hydrogen used in most applications is a fossil fuel. This does not mean it must be this way though. Hydrogen could be obtained through the chemical stripping of water into hydrogen and oxygen. This would make fuel cells non fossil fuel based.
What is the fuel source that is used for glycolysis?
Glucose is the main fuel for glycolysis.
