What is nuclear energy and what is nuclear power?
The same difference as between energy and power. Power = energy / time.
What is the difference between coal power plants and nuclear power plants?
because coal power plants use coal and nuclear power plants use nuclear energy to make electricity!!
What is the difference between nuclear power and nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy is a quantity of energy measured in Joules, so it has the same units as mechanical or electrical energy. Nuclear power is the rate of production of nuclear energy, so it is Joules per second, or Watts, as other forms of power are.Remember: power = energy flow per second. This applies to all forms of energy.
What do nuclear power plants have to do with nuclear energy?
Nuclear power plants produce electricity by using nuclear energy
What energy is produced in a nuclear power station?
Nuclear power stations collect nuclear energy, and produce heat energy and electrical energy.
What is nuclear energy and what is nuclear power?
The same difference as between energy and power. Power = energy / time.
What is the difference between a nuclear power plant and a hydroelectric power plant?
nuclear power plant gets its energy from the strong nuclear forcehydroelectric power plant gets its energy from the gravitational force
What is the difference between coal power plants and nuclear power plants?
because coal power plants use coal and nuclear power plants use nuclear energy to make electricity!!

What is the difference between the sun's energy and a nuclear power plant?
the sun is powered by fusion, the power plant by fission
What is the difference between nuclear power and atomic power?
none. the terms atomic and nuclear here are interchangeable, both refer to energy from the atomic nucleus.
What iS thE differnce between nuclear energy and nuclear power?
The only difference is that between energy and power which is a general observation, not limited to the nuclear field. The point is that power is the rate of energy flow, whether production or absorption (use). Thus energy is measured in Joules, and power is simply Joules per second, 1 watt = 1 Joule/sec
What is the difference between nuclear reactor and nuclearpower plant?
a nuclear reactor converts binding energy into heat. a nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
What is the difference between nuclear power plant and nuclear reactor?
A nuclear reactor is the device that converts binding energy into heat. A nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
What is the difference between mechanical energy and nuclear energy?
Mechanical energy is energy generated through motion, while nuclear energy is generated through either fusion (the combining of atoms), or fission (the breakdown of atoms). stars generate fusion, and nuclear power plants, use uranium for fission.
Differences between energy and power signals?
The difference between energy and power signals...power signals have infinite energy but finite power..
Is there a difference between physical and nuclear energy?
Obviously it is formed in a different way, but the end result is the same. Actually I'm not sure what you mean by physical energy, but we obtain energy by using a fuel such as coal or oil, if that is what you mean I would call that chemical energy. This is the result of burning carbon with oxygen, whereas nuclear power is the result of splitting the nucleus of uranium. Both produce heat which is measured in the same way, calories or joules. (They are interchangeable)
