Question 2

What does nucleuar power run on?

Answer 2

Uranium and Protonium

Question 3

How does nucleur power run?

Answer 3

The water in the core is heated by nuclear fission and then pumped into tubes inside a heat exchanger. Those tubes heat a separate water source to create steam. The steam then turns an electric generator to produce electricity. The core water cycles back to the reactor to be reheated and the process is repeated.
