Fukushima Power Plant Nuclear power plants now account for 14% of the world’s electricity supply [1]. These power plants differ only by the fuel used from oil coal or gas power plants. The concept is otherwise the same. Large nuclei become unstable when struck with a neutron‚ his causes it to split apart and also produce neutrons which are fire out. This then causes a chain reaction and other nuclei are split up. This splitting of nuclei is called nuclear fission and it provides heat which heats

of solar energy. (Background) Solar cells came about in 1883 designed by Charles Fritts. Solar did not come to America until later in the 1950s but was only used by NASA or for space applications. Introduced to the public in 1970 and was used to power navigation warning lights and horns on many offshore gas and oilrigs‚ lighthouses‚ railroad crossings. Domestic solar applications were viewed‚ as practical applications in remote locations where grid connected utilities could not exist affordably

SECTION 1 The Three Mile Island Nuclear Meltdown and the Possible Health Effects of its Children Problem From the nuclear disaster of Chernobyl in April of 1986‚ the medical world has learned much about the possible effects of radioactive materials being exposed to humans‚ specifically the pediatric population. Through this disaster‚ we learned that children and fetuses exposed to radio-nucleotides were susceptible to central nervous system dysfunction leading to microcephaly and retardation‚ congenital

demands is nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is the use of uranium that has been turned into fuel and put through reactors to generate energy‚ and is used to generate a large portion of the energy used around the world. But‚ nuclear energy is not as good as it sounds‚ countries should stop using nuclear energy and start using renewable energy because nuclear energy costs billions of dollars every year to build plants and maintain them‚ there is no where to deposit the nuclear waste‚
