Renewable Energy

Renewable energy doesn't get used up, in the way that coal and oil do. It is still there the next day, such as sunshine; wind power; water power from rivers and oceans; and geothermal power, which uses the heat deep below the surface of the earth.

How can algae be used as a fuel source?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Algae fuel is any fuel made using algae. Algae are a type of simple organism, of which most are photosynthetic (they get their energy from the sun). The smallest algae are unicellular, the largest are the seaweeds that make up kelp forests.

Some types of algae use sunlight to make oil, and if these algae are harvested and the oil extracted from them, the oil can be used in a variety of ways, including as a replacement for petroleum derived diesel fuel.

Whatever portion of the algae which is not oil, is carbohydrates and proteins. These carbohydrates and proteins can be processed to produce butanol, a oily, energy-dense alcohol, which can be used as a direct gasoline substitute.

The oil from algae can also be converted (using the same processes that are used on petroleum) into other types of fuel, such as biogasoline, and aviation biofuel.

The non-oil components of algae can also be converted to other fuels besides butanol (although that's one of the most valuable producable fuels), such as methane and ethanol.

*Well the first use of light is photosynthesis which helps organisms such as plants make their food it contracts with energy and glucose to form their food.

*the second use of light is warm if you have a lot of light it can heat so much somewhere and make it feel very warm.

*the third use of light is to be able to see if you didn't have light then whats the point in being able to see you would just have to walk around not knowing where you are or what you are doing.

How acidic is a potato?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both sweet and white potatoes belong to the same botanical order (Solanales) but they come from different families. Sweet potatoes hail from the morning glory family (Convolvulaceae) while white potatoes are relatives of the deadly nightshade, a.k.a belladonna (family Solanaceae). Other famous (and infamous) nightshades include: datura (Jimson weed), mandrake, capsicum (paprika, chili pepper), tobacco, tomato, eggplant and petunia. Yams, of course, are even more distantly related and are cousins of the grasses and lilies.

Besides the fact that sweet potatoes are orange in color and sweeter than white potatoes, sweet potatoes contain almost twice as much fiber as white potatoes-close to 7 grams per serving-which means that their calories are burned more slowly and efficiently than a low-fiber carbohydrate. They contain a large amount of vitamin B-6, which is crucial in breaking down homocysteine. Vitamin B-6 helps keep blood vessel walls flexible and healthy, which allows blood to flow freely. In addition, sweet potatoes contain high amounts of potassium and vitamin A. One medium sweet potato provides your body with all the vitamin A you need and then some. Sweet potatoes are also a great source of manganese, a mineral that is a pivotal component in the metabolism of carbohydrates, which helps support healthy blood sugar levels. This can help stabilize the appetite for hours as opposed to the temporary satisfaction that comes with most other carbohydrates. It also is a cofactor in enzymes that play an important role in the generation of energy as well as the efficient utilization of antioxidants. It is used for the treatment of anemia and is useful as a treatment for several premenstrual symptoms. Sweet potatoes are also rich in vitamins C and E. These are potent antioxidant vitamins that play an important role in disease prevention and longevity. Both vitamins also play a huge role in the health and beauty of your skin and hair, making them popular supplements. The combination of beta-carotene, vitamin E and vitamin C in one food contributes to a healthy, glowing complexion and great hair.

Sweet potatos are higher in simple carbohydrates.
Just about everything, actually. They are both root vegetables, but they are entirely different plants. They look different, grow differently, are harvested and prepared differently. They look different and taste different, and are different nutritionally.

How is the steam used to produce electricity?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A 300 grams of water takes about 90 seconds to boil in a 2 kW kettle, so that is 2000 watts x 90 seconds which is 180,000 Joules of energy.

But to convert that water completely into steam requires an extra 300x550x4.2 Joules, which is nearly 700,000 Joules.

So converting it to steam takes 4-5 times as much energy as boiling it. That is why it takes a while for a kettle to boil dry.
