Transcription: A nuclear chain reaction produces a tremendous amount of energy from a small initial expenditure of energy. As a result, nuclear energy is cheap compared to that produced by other fuels. In addition, the natural supply of nuclear fuel, unlike fossil fuels, is practically unlimited. However, chain reactions can have disastrous consequences if not adequately controlled and supervised. Nuclear reactors are designed to produce and control nuclear chain reaction by alternating fuel rods containing uranium compounds with control rods containing material which absorbs neutrons and slows the chain rea ...
