How do you make a working model of nuclear power plant?
You would not be able to obtain the fissile material necessary to build a working model of a nuclear power plant. You could build a model, for sure, but it would not be a working model.
How much does a nuclear power plant cost in US?
It is estimated a new nuclear plant built today in the US would cost $10-12 billion for a 1500-1600 MW plant. Then once you have the plant built, one load of fuel bundles would cost approx. $150 to $200 million.
Why would people want to reprocess fuel rods from a nuclear power plant?
as it still has energy in it.
Can a nuclear reactor be built underground?
It could be, but I guess the extra costs would be too high for a commercial plant
What happens if nuclear reactor leaks?
If a nuclear reactor leaked you would have to evacuate the area around the plant and you would attempt to stop the leak and probably depending on the severeity level of the situation you may need to 'SCRAM' the reactor.
If a nuclear weapon exploded on a nuclear Power Plant would the explosion radius increase?
No, a nuclear explosion on a nuclear power plant would not cause the explosion radius to increase. The explosion radius would be determined by the yield of the nuclear weapon itself, not by the presence of the power plant.
What would happen if A nuclear Power plant was struck by a loaf of bread?
I would eat it!
What would happen to a nuclear plant if the fission reaction goes critical or out of control?
There are emergency safety system that could be used to bring the nuclear plant again under control.

Why would you want a scientist working on a nuclear power plant?
Governments want scientists to work on a nuclear power plant to lessen the dependence of fossil fuels. The product of nuclear power plants are atomic energy, a clean energy alternative.
How should you dispose of an old frying pan?
Take it to a recycling center and ask someone who works there into which container they would prefer you place it.
What would happen if an atomic bomb was dropped on a nuclear power plant?
Big boom!!
What is the difference between nuclear power plant and nuclear reactor?
A nuclear reactor is the core component of a nuclear power plant where nuclear reactions occur to generate heat. A nuclear power plant is the entire facility that houses the reactor, along with other systems and structures, to produce electricity from the heat generated by the reactor. In summary, the nuclear reactor is the specific part of the plant where the nuclear reactions take place, while the nuclear power plant encompasses all components needed to produce electricity.
Are there any job opportunities at the perry nuclear plant?
You would have to contact the owners and operators of the plant. See the link below for details
Would you feel safe living within 5 miles of a nuclear power plant Why or why not?
Yes, I would feel safe living within 5 miles of a nuclear power plant. Nuclear power plants are designed with multiple safety mechanisms to prevent accidents, and the likelihood of a radiation release is extremely low. Regulatory agencies closely monitor nuclear power plants to ensure they meet safety standards.
Is there any chance of a nuclear explosion from a nuclear power plant?
No, nuclear power plants cannot explode like nuclear bombs. Safety systems are in place to prevent uncontrolled chain reactions. The worst-case scenario in a nuclear power plant is a meltdown, where the fuel overheats, but this would not lead to a nuclear explosion like a bomb.
