How much power do an average nuclear weapon have?
enough to severely damage an entire city and take millions of lives
Why does it take so much energy to produce a nuclear weapon?
Enrichment from 0.7% Uranium-235 to 93% Uranium-235 is a very energy intensive process no matter how it is done. Separating Plutonium from production reactor fuel pellets is expensive requiring special shielded remote control workstations.
What are the different steps needed to produce the fuel used in Nuclear Power plants?
The nuclear reactor itself is designed to start and sustain a nuclear chain reaction with some radioactive material, which is a constant supply of energy via heat. This heat is then used to power steam turbines, which power the generators that create the electricity.
How many megawatts does it take to power a 50000 population city for ten minutes?
The same amount of megawatts as it takes to power it for a second, a minute, an hour, or a year. A watt, or a megawatt (million watts), is a unit of power, not of energy.
How it work nuclear energy?
Nuclear power stations work in pretty much the same way as fossil fuel-burning stations, except that a "chain reaction" inside a nuclear reactor makes the heat instead.The reactor uses Uranium rods as fuel, and the heat is generated by nuclear fission: neutrons smash into the nucleus of the uranium atoms, which split roughly in half and release energy in the form of heat.Carbon dioxide gas or water is pumped through the reactor to take the heat away, this then heats water to make steam.The steam drives turbines which drive generators.Modern nuclear power stations use the same type of turbines and generators as conventional power stations.In Britain, nuclear power stations are often built on the coast, and use sea water for cooling the steam ready to be pumped round again. This means that they don't have the huge "cooling towers" seen at other power stations.The reactor is controlled with "control rods", made of boron, which absorb neutrons. When the rods are lowered into the reactor, they absorb more neutrons and the fission process slows down. To generate more power, the rods are raised and more neutrons can crash into uranium atoms.

When reacting does uranium give or take electrons?
Uranium is a donor of electrons.
Which has greater density 1 g of uranium or the plantet earth?
Uranium has the greater density. Note that "1 g" is irrelevant - the density of a substance doesn't depend on how much of the substance you take.
How long does it take uranium to become a fossil fuel?
Uranium is not a fossil fuel and cannot be a fossil fuel.
How many bikes would it take to power a city?
Depends on how much power the city is using. A good rider can crank out around 300 W for some time, and about 1000 W (1 kW) for shorter periods. Find out the power consumption, then divide with one of those numbers and see what you get.
How much power does it take to power Disneyland?
That information is unknown to the public.
How many years will it take for 10 g of radioactive uranium to decay into 5 g of radioactive uranium?
5,730 years
Best type of power plant?
Nuclear power is the best by far because you take pellets that have a uranium orb in the middle then stabilizer rods come in stabilize them and then water is poured on them to generate steam that rises through a turbine and spins the turbine generating power
How much hydroelectric power is in Michigan?
As much as yor mom can take
What does it take to build a city?
people with imagination, ambition and the power to get things done
How does it produce energy?
France relies largely on nuclear power plants to provide its electricity. It does not have significant uranium resources, meaning it must purchase its uranium from other countries. France, nevertheless, decided to take the jump to nuclear and now produces 70% of its electricity from nuclear reactors, using its 59 nuclear reactors. It also sells power to adjacent countries.
What part of Rome did Constantine take power?
