What it needs is energy. Nuclear energy is just one of many options to get energy.
Nuclear energy is a alternate fuel source to coal that can create large amounts of energy without polluting the air with carbon dioxide. Installing these in America would lower the need and demand for foeign oil and fuel. However there is a downside to nuclear energy; the nuclear reactor may overhaet and explode.
i know nuclear energy is mostly ud]sed in the USA (america ) hope this helps :-)
France uses the most nuclear energy in the world with the United States of America in second.
Yes
See www.nrc.gov, there is a list of all states with nuclear power reactors.
In nuclear power plants, producing electricity
This seems very unlikely. Nuclear reactors need a lot of heavy shielding so are not suitable for transport purposes
Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy
The energy released is nuclear energy.
Nuclear fission is a type of nuclear reaction that converts nuclear energy into thermal energy (heat), which can then be used to generate mechanical energy (such as electricity). So, fission nuclear energy originates as nuclear energy and can be converted into mechanical energy.
The energy stored in an atom's nucleus is nuclear energy. This energy is released through processes like nuclear fusion or fission, which involve manipulating the nucleus of an atom to release large amounts of energy.
Nuclear energy is already very usable - 104 reactors in the US alone.
