Since 1943 the use of nuclear power/energy/technology has come a long way, from nuclear power plants to space craft that use and rely on nuclear energy to nuclear medicine. Find a specific example of where nuclear power/energy/technology is being used and write a 150 minimum word summary and telling us about your example. Include what nuclear processes are being used and how it might be a benefit to man-kind or a danger. Also include information about any controversies that may...

The United States Department of Energy is considering a number of different nuclear energy plants for different parts of the United States. The Department may build as many plants as it wishes, but the total amount it can spend for land takings and construction is limited to $490 billion. A consultant hired by the Department has provided the cost and benefit data shown in Table 1 below. Table 1 Costs and Benefits of Various Nuclear Energy Plants Costs (Land cost...

Question 1 You run a company that operates and maintains nuclear power plants for generation of electricity You have realised that the highly risky nature of a nuclear power plant operation makes the industry very competitive and costly to maintain. You knew three of your nuclear power plants required reactor core replacement due to faulty components. You were notified by your technicians that imm replacements are needed to prevent a possible nuclear reactor core melt. res were mostly focused on...

6) Pu-239 is produced in the nuclear fuel cycle in nuclear power plants. The half-life of Pu- 239 is 24,000 years. If 500.0mg of Pu-239 are generated this year, how much will remain this month in the year 2683? (2 points) a. b. How much of the original 500.0 mg of Pu-239 will be left after 6 half-lives? (2 points) 7) Polonium-210 has a half-life of 140 days. How long will it take for a sample of 385g of Polonium-210...

At typical nuclear power plants, refueling occurs every 17 months. Assuming that a plant has operated continuously since the last refueling and produces 1.2 GW of electrical power at an efficiency of 27%, how much less massive are the fuel rods at the end of the 17 months than at the start? (Assume 30-day months.) In this problem, can you explain why you set up E=ET/.27 and not E=ET(.27)?

Given the new found interest in nuclear power plants due to potential carbon taxes, you consider starting a company to build a nuclear power plant. Before you can build the plant, you need to gather permits, fight lawsuits and so forth. That will cost $800 million today and take 5 years to resolve with a 35% probability of success. If you build the plant, you must pay $9 billion the day you start building the plant, which is immediately after...

Electricity production requires the construction of very big and expensive power plants. Let's say a nuclear power plant costs $100 million. Once it's built, the only input required is very small amount of labor- one person sits in a room and watches a screen to make sure nothing terrible happens. This person is paid $10/hour ($80 per day). The power plant can produce 100,000,000 watts of electricity a day. (A "watt" is how we measure electricity 100,000,000 is 100 "megawatts".)...

Is%S 5 6% 3) (23 pts) Nuclear power plants often exhaust steam, which you can consider to have the properties of standard air at 5000 ft (since it wants to rise when emitted). Rather than rising, a horizontal wind causes the stack air to move horizontally. What is the horizontal force (in pounds) that the wind imposes on the rising air to cause it to be redirected?
