Is it true that inside a nuclear power plant nuclear fission takes place within the heat exchanger?
yes
Is a geyser is an example of geothermal power?
true
A nuclear power plant produces energy through nuclear fission reactions that provide heat to create steam which then powers a turbine and generator that create electricity true or false?
That's true.
Are hot springs and geysers examples of geothermal activity?
Yes, this is true. Geothermal power is the only form of renewable energy that does not originally come from the sun. Geothermal power uses the heat from deep inside the earth.
Is it true that Hiroshima today receives a quarter of its energy via nuclear power?
Japan gets a little more than a third of its power from nuclear plants. Since electricity from a plant is put on a power grid for distribution, and there is no way to designate power produced as for a specific area, one could say that Hiroshima gets about a third of its power from nuclear plants.
Is it true that habitat destruction is a disadvantage of geothermal energy?
Any building causes some habitat destruction. A geothermal power plant has buildings, pipes and drill shafts. However, this habitat destruction is very small compared to a hydroelectric dam or an open-cut coal mine.
Is a nuclear power plant safe?
It can be if:properly designedproperly builtproperly operatedproperly maintainedproperly monitoredBut all of these conditions are also true for everyother type of power plant.The licensing process is supposed to verify these conditions are met.
Is there a nuclear energy plant in Washington State?
Yes, it is true: Columbia Generating Station.
Why is nuclear power generators popular?
I thought the opposite was true, that they are not popular!
Is geothermal energy a clean renewable source?
Well, it uses the almost never-ending stream of energy from the core of the earth; some 1% of the heat in the core of the earth could power the world for over 100 years.Though this is true, it is definitely more green than coal or nuclear power (to an extent), but it has not really been used enough, or researched enough into to understand the real effects of it on the planet.to a degree, yes. Geothermal is the Earth's heat powering up things. There are sometimes gasses producd, but the actual geothermal power itself is harmless.
Is it true that coal and natural gas are the main fossil fuels used in nuclear power stations?
Fossil fuels are not used in nuclear power stations. Nuclear fuel is used (uranium)
Why animal and plant cells cannot be classified as prokaryote?
Prokaryote means that it contains no true nucleus, which is a nucleus bound with nuclear envelope. Animal cells and plant cells do have a nucleus which is bound with nuclear envelope. For this reason, they are called eukaryote, meaning true nucleus.
