The thermal output of a nuclear reactor is usually quoted in Megawatts(th) to distinguish it from the electrical power output in MWe. For a large PWR of output 1500 MWe, the thermal output of the reactor will be about 4500 MWth. Now 1 calorie = 4.2 Joules, so this power represents 1070 x 106 calories/sec

What can nuclear energy become?
Nuclear waste. Consumable Energy. Heat.
How do you use nuclear energy in a sentence?
Nuclear energy is obtained by the fissioning of nuclei of uranium235, in a controlled chain reaction in a nuclear reactor, which produces heat that can be converted to electricity by normal power plant methods.
What is a limiting factor for using nuclear energy?
There are quite a few limiting factors for using nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is very expensive to produce for example.
How does nuclear energy help with robots?

How does calorific value helps to find out whether the fuel is good?
A good fuel is a fuel with a great calorific value; this fuel contain more energy in the unit of mass, it is more economic.
Explain that different fuels have different calorific value and the consequences of this?
Different fuels have different calorific values means that the different fuels have different energy contents. The consequence of this is that for a given energy output, more fuel is required with the liower calorific fuel.
