POINTS!! How does a nuclear power plant produce electricity?

Quickly moving neutrons coming out of nuclear reactions are used to turn turbines that produce electricity.

Quickly moving neutrons give their kinetic energy to the surrounding water. This causes some liquid water to change states into gas(water vapor). This steam is then used to turn turbines and produce electricity.

Quickly moving neutrons coming out of the reaction create a gas which turns a turbine that produces electricity.

Explanation:

Nuclear power plant produces electricity by using energy from steam to move turbines to produce electricity.

Nuclear reactions, especially nuclear fission are used in nuclear power plants. During this reaction process radioactive decay produces huge amount of energy.

This energy is used to heat water surrounding nuclear rods. The water turns into steam which are in turn used to drive heavy turbines to produce electricity just like in hydroelectric power stations.

the potential energy of the reactants is 200j.

from the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350j; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.

cytokinesis is the splitting of a cell membrane to form 2 identical daughter cells. it's similar to mitosis as both cells have identical copies of dna and cytokinesis is a step in the mitotic cycle.
