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.

What is an example of converting Nuclear energy to electromagnetic energy in an energy transformation?

In a nuclear reactor, nuclear energy is converted to thermal energy. The thermal energy is used to heat water to make steam which can be used to spin turbines. The turbines spin electrical generators. A lot of electric power comes from nuclear power plants.
