Is nuclear power linked to the atomic bomb?
Only in that to make plutonium or tritium for nuclear bombs you need a reactor. While the reactors that make these materials can also be used to generate electricity, they usually don't. Also the types of reactors usually used to generate electricity are not usually designed to efficiently make these materials.
What is the principle of hydro electricity?
The water flowing in the river possesses two types of energy:the kinetic energy due to flow of waterpotential energy due to the height of water.In hydroelectric power plants, the kinetic energy of the water is utilized to generate electricity.
What happens to the lost energy when fossil fuel is used to generate electricity?
Energy is never lost, it is transformed into different types or transferred into different systems. Some of this is useful energy, for example thermal energy used to power a turbine or generator. Some of this thermal energy is not useful, and instead just heats up the fuel container or components of the generator. This energy has still come from the fossil fuel being burned, but it has not been transferred into the system for generating electricity.
What are examples of alternatives forms of energy?
Alternative forms of energy are healthy and reusable types of energy that generate power and electricity. There are seven types of alternative forms of energy. They areBiopower, Geothermal, Hydroelectric, Hydrogen, Solar, Tidal/Ocean, and Wind. Trust me on this I'm a fag
What can nuclear energy be used for?
The two "basic types" of nuclear energy are based on fission and fusion. Fission is atom splitting. Fusion is the forcing together of nuclei and causing them to fuse, to stick together, and to form a new nucleus. In both reactions, a lot of heat is generated. The reactions can be set up to occur "really fast" and release energy all at once. This the idea behind the nuclear weapons.
What types of power does not use a turbine to generate electricity?
solar
What types of electrical power generators are there?
The best way is to use a non-renewable recourse like gas or diesel. These will generate sufficient amounts of electricity to power even a home. Or even pickles in a salt solution will generate electricity.
What types of energy are used at home?
Hydroelectric power (from a dam), nuclear energy, solar power and wind power generate electricity. Natural gas is used for heating. Solar (the sun) can produce heat and electricity.

How is a electrical energy produced at power plants?
There are many different types of power plant but they all produce electricity the same way: by spinning huge magnets around an iron core inside a device called a turbine.

What types of wave power are there?
Using the power of ocean waves to generate electricity. Throughout the world various companies are trialling pilot schemes, with one commercial project successfully running in Portugal. Most consist of different kinds of buoys, floating on the surface, or tethered on the sea bed that capture the ocean's movement and use it to generate electricity which is then transferred to the shore.
