Question

properties and necessitates careful handling and expensive disposal.
compared to the fuel used, what is the net energy yield of nuclear power?
a negative energy yield
a low net energy yield
a zero net energy yield
a neutral net energy yield

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Nuclear power requires significant energy for fuel mining, processing, plant construction, and waste handling. While it produces large amounts of energy, the high energy input for these processes results in a low (but positive) net energy yield, rather than negative, zero, or neutral.

Answer:

a low net energy yield
