17Nuclear fusiona. Uses light-water reactors to split U-238b. Is a new technology used in feeder reactors
which converts U-238 into usable Pl-239c. Is still being researched by scientists b/c it
would alleviate the risks of meltdowns & high-level radioactive waste

19The aspects of an energy
generation shared by wind, hydroelectric, and fossil fuel plant is:
a. The pumps & coolantb. The coolant & control rodsc. The turbines & generatord. The turbines & heat exchangee. Containment shell & reactor
![Page 21: Ch 15 Nonrenewable Energy Multiple Choice Review](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649d305503460f94a0850a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
20There are 3 different coolant/water
loops so that:a. To keep outside water sources
separate from radioactivityb. To increase efficiency by having 3
generator stationsc. To negate thermal pollutiond. To have a backup water & cooland
source in case of meltdowne. Hydroelectric power can be
cogenerated
![Page 22: Ch 15 Nonrenewable Energy Multiple Choice Review](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649d305503460f94a0850a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
21In a nuclear power plant, control rods are
useda. To transport the spent nuclear fuel pellets

to regulate the rate of fissionc. Separate the reactor core from the
turbine & condenser tower to keep radioactive materials from escaping
d. Are used to spin by the high heat, therby generating electricity
e. To moderate water flow
![Page 23: Ch 15 Nonrenewable Energy Multiple Choice Review](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56649d305503460f94a0850a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
22There is a current interest in
smaller 2nd-generation Advanced Light-Water Reactors (ALWRs) because they:◦ I gas-cooled reactors can be used to decompose
water into hydrogen fuel◦ II passive safety features render the threat of
meltdown or explosions near impossible◦ III eliminate the expense and hazards of long term
storage of hazardous materials by using Pl-239 instead of U-238
a. I only b. II only c. II & III onlyd. I & II only e. I, II, and III

23The issue around the Alaskan National
Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) isa. The need to find more domestic oil
supplies on balance with the health of an area set aside to be a place for wildlife
b. Whether or not this new resource will allow the US to become free of dependence on foreign oil
c. If the Tar Sand reserves will require more money to refine and transport to the lower 48 states than they are worth
