there are around 15-20 nuclear reactors here in britain
Other names for nuclear energy include atomic energy, nuclear power, and atomic power.
Most commonly used material to produce nuclear energy in Uranium.
Nuclear power can be used as a source of electricity generation in power plants. It can also be used for powering naval vessels, such as submarines and aircraft carriers, through nuclear propulsion systems. Additionally, nuclear power can be utilized in research and medical applications, such as cancer treatment and radiography.
Nuclear fission reactions are used to create power in nuclear power plants. In a fission reaction, the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This energy is used to generate heat, which in turn produces steam to drive turbines and generate electricity.
What kind of nuclear resource being used in nuclear power depends on what kind of nuclear power is being used. For nuclear fusion, we use tritium and seawater to obtain deuterium for a DT reaction. In nuclear fission, we commonly use uranium ore.
England adopted nuclear power many years ago, in 1956 in fact (Calder Hall magnox reactors)
Nuclear Power is used in power stations to produce electricity
Illinois is were nuclear power is most used
It is used for electricity in nuclear power plants == == Nuclear power is used to heat steam which then turns turbines, which generate electricity in nuclear power stations and also to provide propulsion and power on board nuclear submarines.
Other names for nuclear energy include atomic energy, nuclear power, and atomic power.
The main argument for using more nuclear power (in England or in any other country) is that nuclear power does not emit carbon dioxide, unlike coal or oil power, so for those who are concerned about the greenhouse effect and global warming, this is a good alternative.
In a nuclear power plant
Most commonly used material to produce nuclear energy in Uranium.
There is no nuclear power in Kenya
There is no nuclear power in Kenya
Fossil fuels are not used in nuclear power stations. Nuclear fuel is used (uranium)
Nuclear fission has been used in nuclear bombs and is currently being used in every nuclear power plant on the earth.
