In very very simple language.

4. Nature of Energy
 Energy is all around you!
You can hear energy as sound.
You can see energy as light.
And you can feel it as wind.

5. Forms of Energy
 The five main forms
of energy are:
Heat
Chemical
Electromagnetic
Nuclear
Mechanical

6.  Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium
atoms in a
process called fission. At the power plant, the fission
process is used to generate heat for producing steam,
which is used by a turbine to generate electricity.
 The energy released by nuclear reaction is called nuclear
energy.

7. Brief History
 Nuclear energy was first discovered in
1934 by Enrico Fermi. The first nuclear
bombs were built in 1945 as a result of
the infamous Manhattan Project. The first
plutonium bomb, code-named Trinity, was
detonated on July 16, 1945 in New
Mexico. On August 6th
1945 the first
uranium bomb was detonated over
Hiroshima. Three days later a plutonium
bomb was dropped on Nagasaki. There is
over 200,000 deaths associated with
these detonations. Electricity wasn’t
produced with nuclear energy until 1951.

8. e=mc2
Nuclear energy is released from the nucleus of an atom. Nuclear reactions like
fusion (when two atomic nuclei comb into form a single heavy nucleus) and
fission (w hen a single heavy nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei), release
very high amounts of energy. The mass of an atom gets converted into energy.
Einstein's famous equation helps to calculate the amount of energy released
during a nuclear reaction. This equation is given as:

9. Nuclear Energy
 The nucleus
of an atom is
the source of
nuclear
energy.

10. Nuclear Energy
 When the nucleus splits (fission),
nuclear energy is released in the
form of heat energy and light
energy.
 Nuclear energy is also released
when nuclei collide at high speeds
and join (fuse).

11. Nuclear Energy
The sun’s energy
is produced from
a nuclear fusion
reaction in which
hydrogen nuclei
fuse to form
helium nuclei.

12. Nuclear Energy
 Nuclear
energy is the
most
concentrated
form of
energy.
Most of us live within 10 miles of the Surry
Nuclear Power Plant which converts nuclear
energy into electromagnetic energy.

15. Nuclear energy is one of the safest energies that can be used to achieve many desired
results, provided it's used safely with due precautions. It can be used in diversified fields
for peaceful purposes such as electricity generation, medicinal purposes, reducing
pollution, etc. Here's an elaborate explanation about its benefits.

25. Economic Advantages
 The energy in one pound of highly enriched
Uranium is comparable to that of one million gallons
of gasoline.
 One million times as much energy in one pound of
Uranium as in one pound of coal.
 Nuclear energy annually prevents 5.1 million tons of
sulfur 2.4 million tons of nitrogen oxide 164 metric
tons of carbon
 First commercial power plant, England 1956
 17% of world’s electricity is from nuclear power

26. Nuclear power is definitely a boon. Not consider the negatives only. When we think about the
uses of nuclear energy the bad effects are very negligible. In our earth we live because of
nuclear energy. The climate in earth surface is the reason for the generation of life in earth.
The rays coming from sun is the reason for this climate. We know nuclear fusion is the
process in sun. Nuclear fusion of hydrogen is the generator of energy produces in sun. In
this point of view we can say that nuclear energy is a boon.
Nuclear energy is used in many useful sections like power plants, submarines etc...The cost
of electricity produced by nuclear fission in nuclear power plants is low compared to
thermal power plants. We can produce more electricity from a small area through nuclear
power plants. The modern technology can stop the radiation effect of the nuclear power
plant effectively. So nuclear power is good for human life

27.  Nuclear power is a best power resource in today's
environment .As every coin has two sides so there is also there
are two sides of Nuclear power plant one is good and other one
is bad .Today nuclear energy is seen as a future option for
energy and it is a good energy option in real but when it is used
with care.

28. Economic Benefits of Nuclear Power
 Nuclear power plants provide low-cost, predictable power at
stable prices and are essential in maintaining the reliability of the
U.S. electric power system. Nuclear power is a major national
energy source. Nuclear energy is our nation's largest source of
emission-free electricity and our second largest source of power.
The 103 U.S. nuclear units supply about 20 percent of the
electricity produced in the United States. The only fuel source
that produced more electricity was coal.

29. Environmental benefits
Of all energy sources, nuclear energy
has perhaps t he lowest impact on t he
environment especially in relat ion t o
kilowat t s produced because nuclear
plant s do not emit harmf ul gases,
require a relat ively small area, and
ef f ect ively minimize or negat e ot her
impact s. I n ot her words, nuclear
energy is t he most "ecologically
ef f icient " of all energy sources

30.  Nuclear power plants have long periods of operation. Nuclear
power plants are designed to operate continuously for long
periods of time. They can run about 540 days before they are
shut down for refueling. The longest continuous run by a light
water reactor is Three Mile Island, Unit 1, in Pennsylvania,
which completed a 688-day run. The longest run of any type of
reactor is 894 days, achieved by the Pickering 7 plant, a heavy-
water reactor in Ontario, Canada (Canadian CANDU reactors
can be refueled while operating).
