Which component in a nuclear power plant actually produces the electrical energy?

Answer
A
uranium
B
a turbine
C
steam

a generator

Explanation

The generator produces electrical energy by converting mechanical motion into electricity through electromagnetic induction. In a nuclear power plant, steam spins a turbine, and the turbine drives the generator. Uranium supplies the fuel for heat, but it does not directly produce the electrical energy.
