No, it safely shutdown with no damage. It failed because the tsunami destroyed the generators powering the cooling system.
no it was caused by the tectonic plates the nuclear plant disaster happened because of the earthquake
Fukushima 1 Nuclear Power Plant.
they exploded
The pumps that were supposed to keep the nuclear reactors cool failed to work because the earthquake broke them
A nuclear power plant is considered safe and does not emit toxic fumes into the air. However, in case of a disaster such as an earthquake, a nuclear power plant may be damaged and it will leak radioactive particles into the air.
The Fukushima Nuclear Power plant is a Japanese nuclear power plant in which the reactor meltdown occurred after the tsunami and earthquake in 2011. It is a site of paramount historical global significance to the nuclear energy and safety sector.
There were many effects after the Japan earthquake. One of which was the nuclear power plant leaking. The power plant leaked because when the water hit rthe poles to support it, it got thrown of ballance, and the power plant was exposed. there were also more minor earthquakes after the after shock. Hope this helped! God bless
Yes by the nuclear worries caused by the power plant:)
Because the power plant is the source of electricity
The earthquake and tsunami happened on March 11 2011

The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, was severely damaged by the earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan in March 2011. It was decommissioned in April 2012 and will not reopen. Its sister plant, Fukushima Daini, was shut down after the earthquake and tsunami, but has since reopened.
