A nuclear power plant generates electricity using nuclear energy. The nuclear energy comes from the heat released by the fission of one uranium atom into two smaller atoms. This heat is used to convert water into steam in a nuclear reactor, which is then used to turn turbines to generate electricity.
How is nuclear energy different from wind energy?
A.
The fuel for nuclear energy is unlimited whereas wind is limited.
B.
The fuel for nuclear energy is limited whereas wind is unlimited.
C.
Wind energy is expensive whereas nuclear energy is economical.
D.
Wind energy causes pollution whereas nuclear energy is pollution-free.
