"Are the centrifuges being used for nuclear power or for nuclear weaponry?"

There's really no way to tell up to a certain point. It takes enriched uranium to run a power plant. It takes much more highly enriched uranium to make bombs. I doubt that Iran has any bomb-grade uranium yet. If they're smart, they'll amass a lot of power plant grade uranium while building the capability to quickly jack it up to bomb grade.
