When it comes to generating heat, the sun is undoubtedly a powerful source. However, unlike other sources of heat such as fire or electricity, the sun's heat cannot be stored or reused once it's gone. This is because the sun's heat is generated by nuclear fusion reactions that occur deep within the sun's core. As a result, the heat generated by the sun is a constant and ongoing process, and once it's gone, it's gone for good. While we can certainly harness the sun's heat through various technologies such as solar panels, we cannot reuse the heat generated by the sun once it has dissipated.

Is heat non-renewable?
That is dependent on how it is produced. Heat produced by burning fossil fuels in not renewable, but heat from concentrated solar is renewable.
Why is wind power a renewable energy source?
Wind power is described as a renewable energy source because winds are produced by the suns thermal energy and this is never going to fail or need other sources of energy.
Why dark surfaces are good absorbers of heat and shiny surfaces are poor absorbers of heat?
If you are talking in terms of the suns heat being absorbed by the surfaces then I have the answer. Shiny surfaces naturally deflect the suns rays where as dark surfaces are easy conductors of heat as they naturally catch the suns rays. You will notice with leather or print on a shirt that it gets hot because the rays have nowhere to go. A shiny surface will just deflect it back.
Does the energy from evaporation come from the sun?
Yes, it does because the suns rays heat the the water so that is can evaporate
How is electricity or heat made form renewable energy?
Okay, so renewable energy is basically energy that can be used again, and is an endless resource; the opposite to things like coal which are burnt- full stop. Solar panels can transform sunlight (renewable energy) into electricity, wind turbines can transform wind power into electricity and dams can do the same with hydraulic power I think. Electricity can be turned into heat in turn, or heat can be found directly from the sun, a renewable energy source. I hope this helps!
Is heat a renewable or non renewable resource?
it is renewable
Is heat non-renewable?
That is dependent on how it is produced. Heat produced by burning fossil fuels in not renewable, but heat from concentrated solar is renewable.
What does the suns heat and light come from?
the suns heat light and energy comes from the core of the sun and travels trough space
How do the suns heat get to the earth?
Radiation
Is heat renewable?
yes it is
Does photosynthesis need the suns heat energy or the suns light energy?
Light energy.
A short answer to why is geothermal a renewable resource?
Geothermal energy is renewable because it is using heat for the earths "core" and water (turned to steam by the heat) to power steam turbines. Both the heat and water are renewable resources thus geothermal energy is renewable.
What mode of heat is it for suns heat to reach us?
by solar energy
How does the ocean absorb heat?
The ocean absorbs heat through the suns rays
Is geothermal energy a renewable resource or a non renewable resource?
Renewable. Like the heat of the sun, the heat of the Earth's core isn't going anywhere in the next couple of billion years.
Is heat a renewable source of energy?
heat coming from where? heat from a fire isnt, heat from the sun is.
Do the suns rays that are at an angle produce more heat?
no
