Nuclear Energy is made from the nucleus from the particles whom make up matter. Canada mainly uses nuclear power plants to keep up with 52% of Ontario electrical energy supply. This happens when the nucleus from the power plants make uranium to supply power around Canada. They take the uranium and apply it so it would change to Thermal Energy. Nuclear energy comes in many shapes and forms. One of the main nuclear energy would be called uranium and plutonium. These energies makes it a nuclear power

Have you ever wondered how long it would take to heat up a hot dog in a solar oven? Well this solar oven project is the way to see which type of aluminum foil will heat up the hot dogs the fastest. According to research the thicker that the aluminum foil is the faster the hot dog will heat up, if the conditions are spot on. If the conditions are not spot on then the hot dogs will not be able to heat up fast enough. In this project you will need to look at how to assemble it, the heat and light
