Aperson wants to go into business supplying fuel to nuclear power plants. which resource will he most likely need to acquire in large quantities? a. bauxite b. halite c. limestone d. uranium

The correct answer is D.

Uranium is the fuel mostly used by nuclear plants for nuclear fission. It is a common metal and can be found in many mountain ranges all over the world. Nuclear power plants use uranium U-235 for fuel because its atoms are easily split apart which is needed to produce energy.

Most uranium ore can be found in the West of the United States. The mineral has to be processed before it can be used for energy.

A nuclear fission is a process where the splitting atoms produce energy. Most nuclear power plants use uranium atoms. A neutron collides with a uranium atom and splits it. As a result, energy in the form of heat and radiation is released.

whats the question?

i can't if i don't know the question.

the correct answer is 2.

a slump in geology means a mass movement process of slope failure. a mass of rock or unconsolidated material drops along a slip surface. in other words, rock layers move a short distance down the slope. the slump block is an intact block (2), without any landslide material.

in this image, 1 is the surface of rapture (scarp), 2 the slump block, 3 main scarp (crown), 4 base of rapture with debris flow.

slumps are caused by clear cutting on unstable soils and the sagging of earth, in coastal areas they are due to wave infiltration.
