3. Uses for nuclear and wind energy NuclearWind ∙ most well known by people is the fire power which is the nuclear bombs. ∙can be generated to fuel a submarine ∙can be used for giving batteries energy ∙may be used to treat cancer and heart disease with small amounts of radioactivity ∙was used to power space crafts ∙can be used to power cargo ships ∙wind energy can be used for water pumps without pollution ∙wind energy has been used to fuel cars from electricity ∙ wind energy is needed for many sports like kiting ∙wind energy can be used to power a generator for electricity replacing batteries

4. Important Details for Nuclear energy  Nuclear energy is created by fission which is a process when nuclei or radioactive atoms release energy that can be used for electricity. There is also a process called fusion in which you join two nuclei to also create electrical energy.  It is nonrenewable because it is created in a lab by non-natural events.  It was founded accidently in a lab in 1896 by Enrico Fermi.

5. Important details for wind energy  Wind energy is mainly used to power machines through electricity  Wind energy is renewable because it is powered through the sun.  Wind power was first used in 1978 for powering generators

6. Advantages and disadvantages for nuclear energy AdvantagesDisadvantages  It can provide alternate sources of energy.  If using fusion there are few dangerous wastes.  Generates a large amount of energy  Fusion happens naturally to the sun.  Helps keep the air clean and prevents acid rain.  Nuclear power plants release radioactive wastes that has to be stored until radioactivity is dropped  If using fusion you must use very high temperatures to work.  If cooling system breaks radiation can be released.  If using fusion you can not use it on any earth environment.  No item has ever with standed fusion EVER.

7. Advantages and disadvantages of wind energy AdvantagesDisadvantages  Wind energy is renewable  Does not cause pollution.  Does not affect animals and their habitats  Does not take hard labor or a lot of human work  Can inspire new electric fuel which is good for the environment  Sometimes the wind isn't strong enough to power turbines.  Is very expensive.  Needs a lot of wind energy to work.  The process takes a long time to get power from the sun.  Can hurt job options for manufacturing.
