Not sure what you mean with "transfer into energy". No new energy is created, and no energy is destroyed. Nuclear fission converts nuclear energy (a type of potential energy) available in the atoms, into other types of energy, like heat.

What is a nuclear generating station?

A nuclear generating station is a facility that uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity. It does this by converting nuclear energy into thermal energy, which is used to produce steam to drive a turbine connected to a generator. This process is known as nuclear power generation.


What kind of energy conversions takes place in a nuclear bomb explosion?

In a nuclear bomb explosion, the energy conversion involves the release of nuclear energy through the process of nuclear fission or fusion. This energy is then converted into thermal energy (heat), light energy (flash of light), and mechanical energy (shockwave). The explosion results from the rapid release of this energy.


Energy conversions take place inside your what?

Energy conversions take place inside your body's cells, specifically in the mitochondria, where food molecules are broken down to release energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This energy is then used to power various cellular processes and activities.


What energy transfer take place in power station?

In a power station, energy is transferred from a fuel source (such as coal, natural gas, or nuclear fuel) into thermal energy, which is then used to convert water into steam. The steam then drives turbines that are connected to generators, where mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy. This electrical energy can be transmitted to homes, businesses, and other locations for use.


When are changes of energy to mass and mass to energy observable?

-- In the cores of stars, where nuclear fusion reactions are taking place. -- Inside the casing of a nuclear weapon at the moment of detonation. -- In the fuel rods in the core of a nuclear power generating station. -- At the point of collision in the experimental target area in a particle accelerator.

How do you place the equation e equals mc2 into action?

You can either use a nuclear explosive or a nuclear power station to convert mass into energy or you can collide elementary particles at very high energies so that the energy released by their collision is converted to particles with mass.


What are the energy conversions which takes place in such power stations using fuels to generate electricity?

Chemical energy to thermal energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy


Is nuclear reactors and nuclear energy the same thing?

Nuclear energy is released when U-235 undergoes fission, and that takes place in nuclear reactors (or nuclear weapons). So a reactor is a thing constructed to produce nuclear energy.

Is the use of nuclear energy to conserve energy feasible?

If you use nuclear energy in place of fossil fuels, you are conserving the fossil fuel, that is reducing the amount you use.
