What is the name of the first peaceful nuclear reactor?
The first nuclear reactor used for peaceful purposes was that in Russia (June 1954) and is called Oninsk nuclear power plant. It is the first in the world to generate electricity for an electric power grid system. It produced around 5 megawatts of electric power.
How many percent efficient is the nuclear power plant?
Approximately 33%, depending on the design. That's measuring from reactor thermal power to final electric power.
Why don't nuclear subs use electric motors instead of steam turbines?
nuclear power makes hot water which turns into steam. instead of turbine how about a generator..
How many nuclear power reactors are under construction worldwide?

What US state uses the most nuclear electric power?
Illinois generates the most nuclear electric power in the United States. It has the highest number of nuclear power plants and relies heavily on nuclear energy to meet its electricity needs.
What are the three propulsion types?
The three main propulsion types are chemical propulsion, electric propulsion, and nuclear propulsion. Chemical propulsion uses chemical reactions to generate thrust, electric propulsion uses electric power to accelerate propellant to high speeds, and nuclear propulsion uses controlled nuclear reactions for propulsion.
Is the power grid powered by nuclear energy?
Yes, the electric power grid could be powered by electric power generated through nuclear energy.
Does the nuclear power include oil?
No. Nuclear power uses nuclear energy instead of oil energy.
Does a nuclear power plant produces electricity?
Yes, nuclear power plants produce electric power (electricity).
How does a hybrid computer use power from nuclear power plant?
Electricity supplies in the US contain about 19 percent nuclear generation, so anything which uses electricity from the mains uses nuclear power
Does nuclear power plants uses nuclear fusion?
No, they rely on fission. Controlled fusion is the holy grail of nuclear power.
