Coal
Coal is ground up, then burned in a furnace and then the heat from the furnace is used to turn water in pipes to steam, which rises up and turns a turbine that is connected to a generator that creates electricity.

Nuclear
Nuclear power is created by the splitting of an atom under controlled circumstances, which releases a huge amount of energy that is then used to heat water into steam, and similarly to coal, the steam turns a turbine that is connected to a generator.
