Question

Would it be possible to create a uranium powered vehicle/car?

Is it possible to harness the power of a pure urainium half life?
how much lead would be needed to keep the driver/operator safe?
Could it be considered realistic to take a nuclear powered submarine's engine into a car, design it to be more compact??

Answer 1

Answer:Energy from uranium harnessed for nuclear power:

Nuclear power is generated by the process of Fission. The nuclear energy is generated by splitting the atoms of uranium which creates a lot of heat which produces steam and the pressure from the steam is used by a turbine generator to create electricity.

This is how uranium is harnessed for nuclear power. The uranium fuel is arranged in such a manner that a fission chain reaction can take place the atoms can be broken down. The heat produced spins the turbine and the generator gains power.
