Currently we do not have any good solutions for disposing of the nuclear waste, which will remain dangerously radioactive for thousands of years. Additionally, accidents and nuclear power plants can be catastrophic and can potentially make an area uninhabitable.
more often than not, potential energy is calculated, not measured, based on which means of energy conversion you are looking for. Potential energy released by falling is not the same as potential energy of a nuclear reaction, although the same object can do both
Potential energy can't be measured directly but can be calculated in between two states. Potential energy is also sometimes called as the mechanical energy or stored energy. Every object or body has the ability to have potential energy by different means. Springs carry potential energy when it is compressed or stretched, and when released, all that potential will turn to kinetic energy because the body gains motion. Potential energy always changes into kinetic energy again by different means. Potential energy is calculated by using this expression. Ep = mgh, where m= mass, g= gravity if the body is at height, h= the height.
kinetic because it is using force. it would be potential if it was at the top of a hill.
When you stretch the rubber band you are doing work and energy is stored in the elastic, this is potential energy. When you release the band, the potential turns into kinetic and you have movement, until the elastic has returned to its unstressed original state. Im bored humor me
Anything that had potential energy then converted to kinetic energy. A good example would a ball. If you are playing bowling and you are swinging the ball backwards and about to through it foward, the ball has potential energy. Once you release it, and while the ball is falling it has kinetic energy. The energy of the changes from potential to kinetic energy. Hope this helps XD
One potential negative aspect of using more nuclear energy is the risk of accidents and the potential for radioactive contamination.
Nuclear accidents resulting in radiation leaks can be a potential problem of using more nuclear energy.
The major problems with using nuclear energy to produce electricity include the risk of accidents leading to radiation leaks, the challenge of long-term waste disposal, the potential for nuclear proliferation, and the high costs associated with constructing and decommissioning nuclear power plants.
An advantage of using more nuclear energy is that it produces lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels.
kills power
A non-example of a potential problem with using nuclear energy could be the positive impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels. Nuclear energy does not emit carbon dioxide during power generation, making it a cleaner energy source in terms of climate change mitigation.
The plants are very expensive to build, and could be dangerous in case of an accident.
They can provide a lot of energy for people to use - Apex
The USA started using nuclear energy in 1951

There are quite a few limiting factors for using nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is very expensive to produce for example.
