Nuclear Energy 1. What is nuclear energy? Text Book Pg 80 2. Nuclear Fission :- In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry‚ nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei)‚ often producing free neutrons and photons (in the form of gamma rays)‚ and releasing a tremendous amount of energy. The two nuclei produced are most often of comparable size‚ typically with a mass ratio around 3:2 for common fissile isotopes.[1][2].The smallest

Nuclear Disasters and Accidents Introduction: One of the scariest things about nuclear power is when something goes wrong and an accident occurs. Radiation is released into the environment and people get hurt. Two of the most famous nuclear accidents occurred at the Three Mile Island reactor 2 in the United States and the Chernobyl reactor 4 in the former Soviet Union. In this text we will discuss these two disasters‚ along with correcting a few common misconceptions about nuclear accidents. The

Nuclear energy… Boon or Bane ? Nuclear energy? Nowadays these two words are always sticking on the society’s mouth‚ but do they know the actual meaning of it? Nuclear energy is basically defined as the energy released by the reaction within the nuclei‚ as in nuclear fission or fusion. The core reason of using nuclear energy is to generate electric power to satisfy human needs. Usage of the nuclear power plant as an energy generator came together with several boons and banes. As quoted by the

Can Nuclear Energy Be the Answer? It is only possible to mitigate global warming if the world-wide consumption of fossil fuels can be drastically reduced in the next 10 to 15 years. There is simply no room for a scenario as it is depicted by Lester R. Brown in the book Plan B 4.0 Mobilizing to Save Civilization. The scenario plays out like a horror movie‚ poverty‚ depleted water supply‚ food shortages‚ terrorism‚ over population‚ disastrous floods‚ erratic changes in ocean currents and global

Nuclear energy is possibly the best form of electricity generation and has many benefits over other forms of power generation. Nuclear power generation has been has been a controversial topic primarily because of the lack of public knowledge on the topic. Many people do not realize that it is a green from of power generation because it does not produce greenhouse gasses and they also don’t realize the massive energy potential of Nuclear power. Nuclear power is capable of providing more power per
