If the sun exhausted of its nuclear energy what would happen to our energy resources on earth?

If the sun just went out, we'd still have fossil fuel to burn and nuclear power and such, but plants would begin to die. And it wouldn't be long before energy resources wouldn't matter. Yes, the earth would be cooling rapidly, but the death of plants would spell the doom of all humans on earth.

Which is more important nuclear energy or atomic energy?
Nothing really, nuclear bombs have more blast than atomic.
How does energy happen?
energy doesn't happen, it exists. for energy to happen, energy would have to be an action (verb), but it is a thing (noun).
Where is nuclear energy formed?
In a nuclear fission reactor it is formed by the splitting of nuclei (U-235 or Pu-239) into two smaller parts. This happens within the fuel rods which make up the fuel assemblies. In the stars it is formed by nuclear fusion, which is quite different and does not happen on Earth.
How does a nuclear meltdown happen?
It can happen if the reactor fuel rods overheat, and that can happen if they are not adequately cooled after the reactor is shutdown
What are the dangers when using nuclear energy?
A loss of coolant accident could cause fuel damage and hence release activity into the environment. Reactor design and operation must ensure this does not happen.
Were does nuclear energy happen?
in a nuclear powerplant
What would happen if uranium wasn't extracted?
No nuclear energy, no nuclear weapons
When does chemical energy change into nuclear energy?
This does not happen, they are quite differenwell sometime chemical change into nuclear by going to thermal energy
What would happen if all the oil resources get exhausted?
1. Oil resources will never get exhusted because they are natural. Every part of d world has it own free gift of nature.
What is nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is the energy in the nucleus, or core, of an atom. Atoms are tiny units that make up all matter in the universe. Energy is what holds the nucleus together. There is a huge amount of power in an atom's dense nucleus. Nuclear energy is seen when nuclear fusions or fissions happen.
What would happen if oil runs out?
Nothing. There is plenty of other energy resources. There is so much worry about what will happen when all oil reserves are depleted. By that time we will have advanced technology for electric cars that could travel the circumference of the world. A nuclear explosion releases a huge amount of energy. Imagine if that energy can be safely channeled to homes, factories, and transportation. Nuclear reactors are enough to power the world after there is no oil. There is wind power and solar power and many other undiscovered energy sources. When oil runs out there will be a lot of change, but it will work.
How does the sun create energy and where does it happen?
By nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei, in the core.
What will happen if oil supplies get exhausted?
i dont know it stupid
Is nuclear burned?
Nuclear energy as obtained in nuclear reactor power plants comes from the fission or splitting of the nuclei of uranium and plutonium. It is not a chemical burning process and does not need any other elements to make it happen.
Is an input of energy required in order for nuclear decay to happen in an atom?
no, its a purely statistical quantum process that occurs spontaneously.
Where does nuclear power happen?
In nuclear reactors
What are some jobs for Nuclear Engineering?
Nuclear engineering is a job, but I suppose you mean their duties and responsibilities. Nuclear engineers perform a wide range of activities in their field. They dispose of nuclear waste created by nuclear energy, create machines like x-rays and MRI's that can help diseases, stimulate a nuclear accident so that it won't happen in real life, and also work on ways to make energy more efficient.
