What type of energy does a nuclear power plant create?
A nuclear power plant creates electricity by harnessing the energy released from nuclear fission reactions in the reactor core. This energy is used to heat water, produce steam, and drive turbines that generate electricity.
How much energy can nuclear power use if it was in the world?
I think you must mean how much energy can nuclear power supply , not use, and it is in the world-where else? In the US there are about 100 nuclear reactors and they supply about 20 percent of the nation's electricity
What should generate electricity for recharging batteries?
Renewable sources of energy such as solar, wind, or hydropower are commonly used to generate electricity for recharging batteries. These sources are sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil fuels.
Which energy source takes the shortest time?
Nuclear energy takes the shortest time to generate electricity compared to other energy sources like solar or wind, as the nuclear fission process can produce large amounts of power consistently once the reactor is operational.
What percent of France's electricity comes from nuclear power?
Nearly 80% ( 78.8% to be exact) of France's power comes from nuclear power. In 2009, France's use of nuclear power was the highest ( that the government will let us know ) of any of the nations I the world.
Should you use nuclear power to generate electricity?
no because you could have an accident
What type of energy does a nuclear power plant create?
A nuclear power plant creates electricity by harnessing the energy released from nuclear fission reactions in the reactor core. This energy is used to heat water, produce steam, and drive turbines that generate electricity.
Are nuclear fusion dangerus?
Well, fusion bombs are, but fusion reactors should not be (if we can build them).
Should England adopt nuclear power?
England adopted nuclear power many years ago, in 1956 in fact (Calder Hall magnox reactors)
How does gas fired power station works?
A gas fired power station burns gas to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. (That should be a record number of verbs used in one sentence ;-) A coal fired power station burns coal to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A nuclear power station uses the heat of nuclear reactions to heat water ... A hydro power station uses falling water to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity.
How does a gas-powered station work?
A gas fired power station burns gas to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. (That should be a record number of verbs used in one sentence ;-) A coal fired power station burns coal to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity.

A hydro power station uses falling water to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity.
What step was taken to insure the nuclear reactor was safe in chernobyl?
The RBMK reactors at Chernobyl were probably the most unsafe reactors ever designed and built. They should never have been built.
Should you use nuclear power if electricity ever had a shortage?
tomatoes
How much energy can nuclear power use if it was in the world?
I think you must mean how much energy can nuclear power supply , not use, and it is in the world-where else? In the US there are about 100 nuclear reactors and they supply about 20 percent of the nation's electricity
How do nuclear fusion reactors work?
I found the website K1 Project very helpful. They had several articles underneath their Learn/Energy tab which should answer any questions about nuclear fusion.
How is the production of electricity by fission better than nuclear fusion?
In principle fusion should be better for the environment because it does not produce the active fission products. The snag is that it has not been made to work yet, and won't be for many years to come, so as a practical way of producing electricity it does not come into play, and we have to say fission is better than a non-existent fusion
Should the nuclear life extension program end?
If you mean the extension of current reactors, then no. As long as they are determined to be structurally sound after a thorough inspection.
