What else can I help you with?
What do humans use fission for?
One use is in nuclear power plants to produce steam and turn turbines to generate electricity.Nuclear bombs ^.^
Use nuclear in a sentence?
It was a nuclear bomb. Everyone was afraid of a nuclear bomb. The nuclear power plant malfunctioned. The Cold War was about fear of nuclear attack.
What is a alternative to nuclear power?
wave power, tidal power, solar power and wind power, hope this helps <3
In a nuclear power plant what is used to change water into steam?
Heat from the nuclear reaction changes water to steam.
How many people have died due to accidents and pollution from nuclear power plants compared to how many have died due to accidents and pollution from coal power plants?
There technically is no "pollution" from nuclear power, the only by product is steam. The transport and storage of spent nuclear fuel is extremely secure and safe. The only time we are in danger of nuclear radiation are if the reactor vessels that house the nuclear rods are damaged or melt....which is extremely rare and only happens with a massive failure in the chain of events that govern and sustain the supply (in theory, a deliberate attack on a power plant would also cause a spill, too. Yet, so far, that hasn't happened). In the end, thousands of people die every year from the burning of fossil fuels, where as virtually nobody dies from the use of nuclear power. Over 85 of France's power usage comes from nuclear power, after all.
What can be used as a substitute for nuclear reactors?
No substitute for nuclear power reactors especially if there is no available fossil fuel.
Where can one find a list of available nuclear jobs?
One may find a list of the available nuclear jobs on Nuclear Street. They maintain postings for nuclear power plants and provide resource for both internal positions and outsourced positions.
Is nuclear power readily available?
In all countries using nuclear power for peaceful purposes there exists a licensing organisation set up by Government to assess the safety of the plants and to issue licences to operate, and it would be illegal to try to do anything for which a licence has not been issued. Therefore building and operating a nuclear plant can only be done by an organisation that is capable of satisfying the licensing authority that they can do the job safely. It seems impossible to visualise nuclear power being used more widely, it will always be the province of the large electricity companies, who have the staff and organisation to do the job in a satisfactory way.
What are the power plants available in Tamil nadu?
Thermal power plant,Hydro power plant,Nuclear power plant,Diesel power plant.
Why nuclear would not be a good alternative to hydroelectric power?
If hydro power is available, go for it. Most places don't have enough water or height to produce much hydro though. I hope nobody has built nuclear where hydro is available.
Why does nuclear power need to be disposed of carefully?
because it can always explode right there and then
Where is nuclear energy available?
Nuclear energy is available in various countries around the world, with the highest number of nuclear power plants located in the United States, France, China, and Russia. These countries have invested in nuclear energy as part of their energy mix to generate electricity.
How is nuclear energy available in your community?
Nuclear energy is available in my community through a nearby nuclear power plant that generates electricity for the region. It contributes to our energy supply, providing a reliable source of power with low greenhouse gas emissions. However, there is ongoing debate about the safety and long-term waste management of nuclear energy.
Three cities in which nuclear power should be used?
Nuclear power is not usually sited in cities, I'm not aware of any plants that are. They are always sited in non-urban areas.
If something is nuclear power does it run out of energy?
No, nuclear power does not run out of energy like fossil fuels do. Nuclear power plants generate electricity by using uranium or thorium as fuel, which undergoes a process called nuclear fission to produce energy. As long as there is fuel available and the plant is properly maintained, nuclear power can continue to generate electricity indefinitely.
