Usually, fossil fuels are burned to generate heat which then creates steam from water which in turn is used to spin turbines that generate electricity. They can alternatively be burned directly for heat or, after refinement, used in controlled explosions as vehicle fuel.
Yes
four advantages for fossil fuels: Fossil fuels have high energy density, are readily transportable, are usable with current infrastructure, and
Fossil fuels can be burned to release the potential chemical energy stored millions of years ago.The process of burning fuels is called Combustion.

the energy that is in fossil fuels is chemical and radiant energy.
it can transformed by fuels
Earths sources of concentrated usable are being depleted. These are mainly fossil fuels that are running out. However there is still wind, water and solar energy.
Fossil fuels come from plants and microscopic organisms, which long ago died and were buried in the earth and slowly transformed into coal, oil, and gas. These plants and microorganisms once, millions of years ago, got their energy from the sun. Thus, all fossil fuels received some solar energy.
No. Fossil fuels store chemical energy. It is this chemical energy we tap by using them for fuels.

Nuclear energy does not come from fossil fuels
