What are some dangers from a nuclear power plant?
if there is a fire the nuclear power plant goes big boom
Why is a power plant an example of nuclear energy?
There are different types of "power plant". Some run on nuclear energy, others don't.
Where are some places you can find radioactive smoke?

What are some benefits of nuclear power plants?
Reduction in Air Pollution. Nuclear power can also be part of a strategy to address carbon emissions. Nuclear power plants emit no carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, or nitrous oxides.
Where is the location of the eskom thermal power plant?
If you mean the Eskom nuclear plant, this is at Koeberg, some 30km north of Capetown
What is the difference between nuclear power plant and nuclear reactor?
It's really just a matter of degree, all reactors produce some power. Those used in a power plant will produce perhaps 3000 to 5000 Megawatts thermal. Low power reactors producing a few kilowatts are used for experiments, teaching in universities, and for producing radioisotopes by irradiating samples, but reactors in this sort of power level would not be harnessed to produce electricity, the heat produced if large enough would be removed and rejected to the atmosphere or to a water cooling circuit. This makes them simple to operate and to start and stop as required.
What energy is lost from nuclear energy?
Some heat is lost in the vapour that rises from the power plant.
What kind energy does a power plant have?
It depends on the type of power plant. Some of the most common is coal (which is used to make steam to create power) one of the least common in the us is nuclear power.
Does a toaster use nuclear energy and how?
A toaster converts electrical energy into thermal energy. Some of that electrical energy may have come from a nuclear power plant.
