The first production of electrical power from a nuclear reactor was in the UK at Calder Hall, 1956. Shippingport in the US followed soon after

No.


What kind of energy use uranium?

Nuclear energy sometime uses uranium for its energy source.


How do use the words nuclear energy in a sentence?

there was nuclear energy in the science experiment


Is rushing water a nuclear source of energy?

No, rushing water is not a nuclear source of energy. It is a renewable energy source known as hydropower, which is generated by harnessing the energy of flowing water to produce electricity through the use of turbines. Nuclear energy, on the other hand, is generated by splitting atoms in a process called nuclear fission.


What does nuclear energy use to create its source of energy?

From the nuclear forces. An U-235 atom has a higher energy level than its daughter products; this is used in nuclear fission.


How could the use of nuclear energy source be reduced?

By relying more extensively on fossil fuels. The hell with global warming!Seriously, the use of nuclear energy needs to be expanded, not reduced.


Is it ethical to use nuclear energy faster than it can be replaced?

No, it is not ethical to use nuclear energy faster than it can be replaced as it can lead to resource depletion and environmental harm. It is important to use nuclear energy sustainably to ensure future generations have access to this energy source.


What are two common sources of nuclear energy?

Two common sources of nuclear energy are nuclear fission, where atoms are split to release energy, and nuclear fusion, where atoms are combined to release energy. Nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to generate electricity, while nuclear fusion is a process being researched as a potential future source of clean energy.


Relating to atomic energy?

Atomic energy is the energy released from splitting (nuclear fission) or combining (nuclear fusion) atoms. It is used in nuclear power plants to generate electricity and in nuclear weapons for explosive purposes. The use of atomic energy has both benefits, such as providing a relatively clean energy source, and concerns, such as nuclear accidents and nuclear proliferation.


What are two reasons that people don't use nuclear fusion as a energy source?

One good reason-it has not been made to work yet! We do of course use solar energy which is produced by nuclear fusion


Reason nuclear fusion isn't a source of energy?

It has not been successfully developed yet on Earth, but it is the source of the sun's energy, so we all use it every day!


What do nuclear power plants have to do with nuclear energy?

Nuclear power plants use nuclear energy as their source of power. They harness the energy released from nuclear reactions (such as fission) to generate electricity. The heat produced by these reactions is used to create steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.
