What energy is produced in a nuclear power station?

Answer 1

the "disappearance" of a small amount of mass

Answer 2

Electrical Energy ( Electricity).

When the nuclear reaction undergoes fusion, it generates heat.

This heat is used to heat the surrounding enclosed jacket of water.

Because this jacket can also be radio-active , the enclosed circuit of water undergoes heat transfer to more water, in an open system, to create steam.

Steam is then passed into a turbine. The turbine rotates thereby rotating a magnet in a coil of wire ( the generator). The rotating magnet inside the coil makes the electrons in the coil move (electricity).

This electricity is then passed into a (step-up) transformer to reduce the amperage and increase the voltage to 132,000 V (UK standard). It is then passed through the net work grid (pylons across the countryside in the UK) to another (step down) transformer to reduce the voltage to 250V for UK .

domestic use. So you can use your computer, cooker, TV. games console etc., and anything else electrical.

Answer 3

Nuclear power stations produce electricity through a process called nuclear fission. In this process, energy is released by splitting atoms of uranium. This energy is then converted into electricity using turbines.

Answer 4

The Disappearance of a small amount of mass.

Explanation: (totally not copied from apex :))

Answer 5

The splitting and fusing of atomic nuclei.

Answer 6

Nuclear power stations collect nuclear energy,

and produce heat energy and electrical energy.

Answer 7

Mass
