How nuclear source of energy is man made resource?

When we obtain nuclear energy from elements in the earth like Uranium, what we are doing, is obtaining energy which produced by splitting up subatomic particles. So we obtain the atomic energy from splitting up the atomic particles, not from the uranium itself, which is a natural resource. Since the splitting up of subatomic particles is completely "man-made", if you will and does not occur in the environment, Nuclear energy is a man made resource


How do you Obtain atomic energy?

Atomic energy is obtained through the process of nuclear fission, where the nuclei of certain heavy elements, such as uranium or plutonium, are split, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat. This heat is then used to generate electricity in nuclear power plants.


Is fusion nuclear energy or chemical energy?

Nuclear fusion produces nuclear energy


Is nuclear energy a chemical energy?

The energy released is nuclear energy.


Is fission nuclear energy chemical energy or mechanical energy?

Nuclear fission is a type of nuclear reaction that converts nuclear energy into thermal energy (heat), which can then be used to generate mechanical energy (such as electricity). So, fission nuclear energy originates as nuclear energy and can be converted into mechanical energy.


What energy is the energy that is stored in an atoms nucleus?

The energy stored in an atom's nucleus is nuclear energy. This energy is released through processes like nuclear fusion or fission, which involve manipulating the nucleus of an atom to release large amounts of energy.


How do autotrophs obtain energy and how do heterotrophs obtain energy?

Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light


Can nuclear energy work with other forms of energy?
