Which country generates the most electricity with nuclear power?
The US generates most, with 104 power reactors, but France has the largest percentage at around 80 percent of total electricity
What is the difference between the way a fossil fuel power point generates electricity and the way a nuclear power plant generates electricity?
A fossil fuel power plant burns coal, oil, or natural gas to heat water and produce steam, which turns a turbine connected to a generator to produce electricity. In contrast, a nuclear power plant uses nuclear reactions to heat water and produce steam to turn the turbine and generator. Nuclear power plants do not emit greenhouse gases during operation, while fossil fuel power plants do.
How is heat of Nuclear fission used?
Heat from nuclear fission is used to generate steam that drives turbines connected to generators, producing electricity. This process is utilized in nuclear power plants to provide a significant proportion of the world's electricity.
What is the difference between a bioreactor and nuclear reactor?
A nuclear reactor uses either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion to generate electricity, while bio-reactors use the excretions of many animals to generate electricity.
What are the social implications of using nuclear energy as compared to other ways of generating electricity?
It generates electricity and it is too dangerous. We cannot depend on nuclear power.
This European nation generates 75 percent of its electricity using nuclear power?
France
How much nuclear power does the US use?
It's about 20 percent of total electricity generated

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 percentage of electricity does nuclear energy generate?
Nuclear energy typically generates around 10-20% of electricity globally, depending on the country. In some countries, such as France, nuclear energy can contribute up to 70-75% of electricity generation.
What is the difference between electricity being made in a fossil fuel power station to being made in a nuclear power station?
The difference is only the material that is being used to generate electricity.
How do you get power from a nuclear power plant?
The controlled nuclear reaction generates large amounts of heat. That heat boils water, which creates steam. The steam turns turbine blades, and the turbine generates electricity.
