What else can I help you with?
What do you call the energy from beneath the earths surface?
It is called geothermal energy.
By what two methods does geothermal heat get to the earths surface?
Geothermal heat reaches the Earth's surface through conduction, which involves the slow transfer of heat through the Earth's crust, and through convection, where hot molten rock rises towards the surface, bringing heat along with it.
What dose geothermal mean?
Geothermal refers to heat energy stored beneath the Earth's surface. It can be harnessed through technologies like geothermal power plants to produce electricity or for direct use in heating applications.
What means earths heat?
Geothermal energy.
Were does geothermal energy come from?
Geothermal energy comes from the heat stored beneath the earth's surface in the form of hot water and steam. This heat is generated from the decay of radioactive materials in the Earth's core and from leftover heat from the Earth's formation.
Where does Geothermal Energy get its energy from?
Geothermal energy gets its energy from the heat stored within the Earth's crust. This heat comes from the radioactive decay of elements, residual heat from the Earth's formation, and heat from the sun absorbed by the surface.
What energy is created from the earths heat?
Geothermal energy is created from the Earth's heat. This renewable energy source harnesses heat from beneath the Earth's surface to generate electricity or provide direct heating.
Heat energy generated within the earth is called what?
my answer is the heat energy is magmaThe heat energy in earths crust is geothermal energy
How hot does the core of the earth get?
the earths core gets hot by all the heat on the surface and gose to the core of the earth.
Which energy source uses water that is naturally heated by the earths internal heat?
Geothermal Energythe term for deriving electricity from the heat of the earth is "Geothermal" (literally geo = earth and thermal = heat). Iceland gets a huge portion of its electricity from geothermal energy
What does geo-thermal mean?
Geo thermal is word made up from two Greek words for Earth and Heat. Geothermal is therefor heat from the earth The temperature of the earth rises as you go down towards the core. The heat gets so intense that rocks are molten (magma and lava). Some locations on the earths surface have "hot spots" where this hot rock is close to the surface (Iceland) and people can drill down to it to use the heat as an energy source or use naturally occurring stream sources (geysers) for power. Geothermal energy i cheap, environmentaly friendly and interesting.
Where is geothermal located?
geothermal starts at the outer edge of the earth's crust and gets hotter the deeper you go. The gradual increase in the temperature as the depth increases is called the geothermal gradient. As you proceed through the crust the gradient is gradual. When you break through the upper mantle the temps then rise almost exponentially.
