Question
nuclear reactions in a reactor produce a lot of thermal energy. that energy then flows and warms up water, which boils and produces steam. the steam then turns turbines that generate electricity. which statement below can be made about the production of electricity in a nuclear reactor? heat flows in the form of electricity. heat flows from the reactor to the water. the water produces heat. the steam produces heat.
Nuclear reactions in the reactor produce thermal energy which warms up water. Heat flows from the source (reactor) to the water. Heat is not electricity. Water and steam don't produce heat in this context; they receive and transfer it.
