Question

what is the sequence of energy transformations that occur in a nuclear reactor? nuclear energy → mechanical energy → thermal energy → electrical energy nuclear energy → thermal energy → mechanical energy → electrical energy thermal energy → nuclear energy → mechanical energy → electrical energy electrical energy → thermal energy → mechanical energy → nuclear energy

Explanation:

In a nuclear reactor, nuclear fission releases nuclear energy which is converted to heat (thermal energy). The thermal - energy is used to produce steam which drives turbines (mechanical energy). The turbines are connected to generators that produce electrical energy.

Answer:

nuclear energy → thermal energy → mechanical energy → electrical energy
