    Nuclear Power is reliable yet controversial source of energy in the U.S. Many people have different viewpoints on Nuclear energy. Although nuclear energy can cause many problems such as nuclear accidents‚ it saves money‚ produces less pollution‚ and it can be made in any environment. The benefits of nuclear energy outweigh the risks. Without nuclear energy we would be relying on the weather for energy. Nuclear energy is energy that forms in the nucleus of an atom. The process begins with an uranium

    Kinetic energy is increasing between letters A-B‚ C-D and E-F. Based off the observations‚ in phase A-B Tert-Butyl Alcohol stays a solid‚ in phase C-D Tert-Butyl Alcohol stays a liquid‚ and in phase E-F the chemical stays a gas. This is observed at the particle level because temperature is a measure of Ek; the temperature is increasing which increases kinetic energy. Since Ek is the energy of motion‚ the particles would increase their velocity and the number and force of collisions. However‚ the
