(a)
Interpretation:
A US state has to be chosen and summary of its nuclear power plants, their energy production and any proposed changes has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Nuclear reactor is used to generate electricity. In a nuclear reactor, nuclear fission reaction occurs. And during nuclear fission large nucleus will be transformed to smaller nuclei with the liberation of tremendous energy. This energy can be utilized for power generation.
(b)
Interpretation:
At least two US states that uses more than one third of the nuclear energy has to be mentioned.
Concept Introduction:
Nuclear reactor is used to generate electricity. In a nuclear reactor, nuclear fission reaction occurs. And during nuclear fission large nucleus will be transformed to smaller nuclei with the liberation of tremendous energy. This energy can be utilized for power generation.
(c)
Interpretation:
A state with no nuclear power plant has to be chosen and the method by which they produce electricity has to be discussed.
Concept Introduction:
Nuclear reactor is used to generate electricity. In a nuclear reactor, nuclear fission reaction occurs. And during nuclear fission large nucleus will be transformed to smaller nuclei with the liberation of tremendous energy. This energy can be utilized for power generation.
