How long does nuclaer energy last?
Nuclear energy can last for millions of years, as it is generated by the process of nuclear fission, where atoms are split to release energy. The duration of nuclear energy depends on the amount of available nuclear fuel and the efficiency of the reactor.
Will you run out of fossil fuels or nuclear energy?
Answerfossil fuels, because nuclear energy will always be on earth no matter what.AnswerSince neither fossil fuels nor nuclear fuels are renewable, we will run out of both.Our supply of nuclear may outlast our supply of oil, but it will not outlast our supply of coal or oil shale.The good news is that technology is developing very quickly for renewable energy, so we will probably need neither fossil fuels nor nuclear in the long term.
Why is nuclear energy not a form of sustainable energy?
This is probably not an appropriate answer, but there's no permanent way to dispose of it's highly toxic waste. Answer Actually, I think the above is an appropriate answer. But there is also the issue that there is a limited supply of fuel sources. Even if thorium is used, which would give us a supply big enough to last thousands of years, the supply will eventually run out.That's one of the possible reasons, but nuclear fission and fusion both highly depends on uranium, and uranium is a non-renewable resource, therefore, nuclear energy is not a form of sustainable energy because it can run out in the future.
Which source of energy is used as a last resort?
Nuclear energy is sometimes considered a last resort due to its potential risks and concerns about safety and environmental impact.
What is the source of energy in nuclear power plants?
The source of energy in almost all nuclear power plants is fission or the splitting of the atom. There are a few experimental fusion power plants, (or the joining of the atoms), but, there are few of them, since the energy needed to produce fusion is extremly high, and only last a few seconds. Around 99.99% of nuclear power plants are fission power plants.

Can nuclear energy last out whole lives?
yes it can

Will nuclear energy run out first than wind or petroleum or geothermal energy?
Wind and geothermal will never run out, but they will not supply the world's demands either. It's not clear how long petroleum will last, more is still being discovered. Uranium will last until the end of this century, at least.

What types of alternative energy is used in Iowa?
Iowa's main source of energy is nuclear power. There are over 50 nuclear stations called mps (nuclear power station). And has only had 50 accidents in teh last ten years!
Why will fossil and nuclear fuels last longer if we also use renewable energy resources?
The more renewable energy we use the less non-renewable energy we use. And if we use less of it, it'll last longer.
Which source of energy is used as a last resort?
Nuclear energy is sometimes considered a last resort due to its potential risks and concerns about safety and environmental impact.
Will electricity last for ever?
As far as energy resources required to produce electrical energy are available such as oil,nuclear energy,water energy, wind energy ...etc , electrical energy production can be maintened.
Can nuclear energy keep being used?
There are reserves of uranium which will last another 100 years at least
What is positive about using nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy releases no greenhouse gasses and in comparison with solar energy, it's way cheaper. It also produces cheap electricity, France has the cheapest electricity in Europe and the get almost 80% of their electricity from nuclear power plants. It's also highly sustainable, contrary to what many think. Bernard Cohen proved that we can last billions of years on nuclear energy!
