How long does it take to develope a nuclear power?
it takes about millions and millions of years to develope a nuclear power.
Is nuclear power quite cheap to run?
The fuel cost is lower than for fossil fuel, so once the plant is built it tends to be run continuously on base load at full power, to take advantage of this. Taking the high building cost into account, there is probably not much difference overall between nuclear and fossil.
How is the heat generated by the reactor core of a nuclear power plant used to provide power to building?
Within the reactor core of a nuclear power plant all the actions and reactions take place. These reactions release energy in the form of heat. This can be harnessed to provide power to the building.
What is the bad effect of nuclear energy in environment?
Nuclear energy--- as in, nuclear power plants--- have quite a few bad effects. 1) Carbon Dioxide. Building and running nuclear power plants omits a lot of Carbon Dioxide into the air. (Too much Carbon Dioxide could lead to global warming) 2) Low-level Radiation. Long term exposure to low level radiation has been shown to effect the surrounding plants and wildlife. 3) Water Cooling System. To stop the power plant form over-heating, workers take water from oceans and rivers- sometimes fish get caught in the water trap and are soon killed. Also, the excess water is returned approximately 25 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than it was before. The new temperature kills off some fish and plant life. 4) Nuclear waste. It's usually kept under the power plant, but once there's no more room, there's nowhere else to leave it.
What is nuclear power plant decommissioning?
It is safely disposing of the bits of a burned out power station. (As nuclear fission gives off neutrons, anything near a nuclear fission reaction itself becomes radioactive over time, so it is a big job to take down a power station safely)
How long did it take after the 1986 chernobyl nuclear power plant fire for it to become a health hazard?
It was a health hazard immediately
What country did the Chernobyl nuclear accident take place?
Russia, the nuclear plant was in the place called chernobyl :)
Where did the worst Nuclear plant meltdown take place?
The worst nuclear accident occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Ukraine (under the management of authorities in Moscow).
How much money does it take to set up a nuclear power plant?
1 plant takes 30million dollares
How long would it take to make new zealand a nuclear country?
We still not a nuclear country
How long does it take to construct a nuclear power plant?
It depends where. In the U.S., it takes several years, mostly because of all the environmental studies and impact statements, permits and other government paperwork. Also, in the U.S., each one has some level of custom engineering. Also, unions slow down the work considerably. (I would not have made that last statement before I worked with some engineers who had been involved in building a nuclear power plant. They told me that the plumbing, for example, took between 2 - 3 times as long as it would have with non-union plumbers, and there is A LOT of plumbing in a nuclear power plant.)A conventional plant without any site-specific engineering or red tape could be built in less than a year.
Where did the world's worst nuclear power plant disaster take place?
Chernobyl, Ukraine, 1986
How long does it take to develope a nuclear power?
it takes about millions and millions of years to develope a nuclear power.
How long does it take for puriclean to work?
nuclear fusion reaction
How many other coal plants would it take to replace nuclear plants?
Depends on the amount of electrical energy they (need to) generate. How much does the average nuclear plant generate ? How much does the average coal plant generate ?

How long did it take to test the nuclear bombs?
I think they are still testing
