How many houses can be supplied with electricity for a year with the nuclear energy from one peanut?

It is estimated that the energy from one peanut can power a lightbulb for about 30 minutes. To power a typical household for a year, it would take the energy from millions of peanuts. Nuclear power comes from a much more concentrated source of energy compared to peanuts.


What year did Albert Einstein think about nuclear energy?

Albert Einstein began thinking about nuclear energy in 1905, when he proposed the famous equation E=mc^2 in his paper on special relativity. He later became a prominent advocate for nuclear energy research in the 1930s and 1940s.


How many of the countries in the world do not have nuclear power reactors?

There are currently (year 2013) 31 countries having nuclear power reactors. The rest are not having nuclear power.


How many year 9 students could be supplied with food for a year with the nuclear energy form one peanut?

Assuming a year 9 student consumes about 2,000 calories a day, one peanut contains around 6-7 calories. This means one peanut could supply a year 9 student with around 1-2 hours of energy, far less than what is needed for a year.


How many times greater is the amount of electrical energy produced in the US by coal burning power plants than the amount produced by nuclear energy?

In the US, coal burning power plants produce around 1.2 times more electrical energy than nuclear power plants. This ratio fluctuates depending on the specific year and conditions.

How much energy does a nuclear reactor use up each year?

A large nuclear power reactor will have a thermal output of about 3000 MW. If this runs all day every day it will therefore produce 3000 x 365 MWD (Megawattdays) of energy in a year.
