Which nuclear reaction is currently used to generate electrical energy?
The fission of uranium 235, which produces heat
Should nuclear energy be used to generate power?
It can be used to generate power but it is very dangerous yet little nuclear energy can generate ALOT of power.
What energy is released in a nuclear reaction?
Nuclear Energy
The energy released by a fission or fusion reaction?
What is the question
What Is a source of energy that utilizes uranium-235 in a fission reaction to vaporize water The steam is then used to turn turbines to generate electricity?
nuclear power
Where does the sun generate its energy?
a nuclear reaction from the all of hydrogen in the sun
What reaction generate thermal energy in a nuclear power plant as water is changed into steam?
fission
What do nuclear power companies do?
They generate electrical energy from nuclear energy, and then distribute it through wires to your house, where it can be used to run your lights, your TV, and your electric can-opener.
Why does china want uranium?
Because China want to build nuclear reactors to generate electric energy.
Which nuclear reaction is currently used to generate electrical energy?

What role do fuel rods play in generating energy?
Fuel rods are the nuclear fuel in a nuclear power plant. They are used to turn water to steam, which is then used to turn a turbine. They do not "generate energy", since energy cannot be created or destroyed (E=mc^2). They are used to generate electricity, or to convert nuclear energy to electric energy.

What energy is released in a nuclear reaction?
Nuclear Energy
How does nuclear energy relate to the sun?
We derive electromagnetic energy from the nuclear fusion reactions on the sun. We also apply nuclear energy (fission) on earth to generate lots of thermal energy, which we use in a steam cycle to generate lots of electric power.
What is Nuclear reactors and it's parts and functions?
it is a device in which chain reaction is initiate or controlled $generate heat energy typcially for power
How can nuclear power be used to generate electricity?
Nuclear energy is produced by a controlled nuclear chain reaction and creates heat—which is used to boil water, produce steam, and drive a steam turbine. The turbine can be used for mechanical work and also to generate electricity.
