What is Uranium energy used for?
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel in nuclear reactors.
Where has Nuclear Energy been used with great success?
In France for example.
Is magnesium used for nuclear energy?
Magnesium is not used in the nuclear energy.
Has nuclear energy been used succssfully in the past?
Only since 1956
Is nuclear energy and nuclear fuel different?
Nuclear fuel is the fuel used to produce nuclear energy.
Can nuclear energy be used everywhere?
Yes. There are virtually no physical limitations to where nuclear power can be used. Nuclear reactors have already been used on land, air and sea... and submerged and in space. Not only we humans use nuclear energy, but it is the primary source of energy in natural processess in the world too. Life on earth depends on the sun's energy, which in part is produced by nuclear fusion in the heart of the star.
How are Nuclear energy transformed into usable energy?
Nuclear energy is used to produce steam. This steam used to rotate turbines
How are nuclear energy used?
Saying nuclear energy is like saying Norwegian furniture. Nuclear power/energy is used everywhere, in 2009 20% of all electricity in the US was nuclear origin.
What nuclear reaction is currently used to produce nuclear energy in nuclear reactors?
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
What happens to nuclear energy before it is used?
Nuclear energy is released as heat in the fuel of a nuclear reactor, but only when the reactor has been brought to criticality and the chain reaction started. At that point the heat must be used, it can't be stored and used later. Before criticality is established, the reactor is shutdown and producing no nuclear heat from fission, so you could regard it as having potential nuclear energy in that state
Advancements in nuclear science have led to new technology which have been beneficial to society Many of the advances are used in medicine what is not a medical use of nuclear energy?
The answer is Nuclear Fusion
What is an example of the energy found in nuclear fission?
Nuclear fission happens when the strong nuclear force of an atom has been overcome. It releases a lot of heat, and this is typically used to boil water, to drive turbines, which turn the heat energy into mechanical energy, and this is used to power generators to make electricity.
