It can produce radioisotopes used in diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions
Other names for nuclear energy include atomic energy, nuclear power, and atomic power.
Nuclear fission is a type of nuclear reaction that converts nuclear energy into thermal energy (heat), which can then be used to generate mechanical energy (such as electricity). So, fission nuclear energy originates as nuclear energy and can be converted into mechanical energy.
In nuclear power plants, nuclear energy is used to produce heat, which is then used to generate steam. The steam drives a turbine connected to a generator that produces electricity. The electricity produced can then be used to power light fixtures, converting nuclear energy to light energy.
In a nuclear power plant, the reactor produces nuclear energy which transforms to thermal energy, and this is then used to produce steam which is used in a conventional staem turbine/generating set to produce electricity
The unit used to measure thermal energy besides joules is the calorie. It is commonly used to quantify the energy content in food and beverages.
Nuclear energy has never been used for launching space craft. The requirements for shielding would make it too heavy, and then there is the risk of it crashing. The only practicable energy source is from high energy chemical fuels.
Magnesium is not used in the nuclear energy.
Other names for nuclear energy include atomic energy, nuclear power, and atomic power.
Saying nuclear energy is like saying Norwegian furniture. Nuclear power/energy is used everywhere, in 2009 20% of all electricity in the US was nuclear origin.
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.

Uranium energy is primarily used as fuel in nuclear power plants to generate electricity. It undergoes nuclear fission, in which the uranium nucleus splits into smaller parts, releasing a large amount of energy. Uranium can also be used in nuclear weapons due to its ability to undergo fission reactions.

No, nuclear energy is only used to make electricity
Nuclear energy is used to produce electrical energy, but there is no direct relationship
In nuclear power plants, nuclear energy is used to produce heat, which is then used to generate steam. The steam drives a turbine connected to a generator that produces electricity. The electricity produced can then be used to power light fixtures, converting nuclear energy to light energy.
Uranium is used to make energy by fission
