OBAMA 08 OBAMA 08 OBAMA 08 -McLovin Ummm....McLovin didn't answer anything... *ahem* Anyway, hydrothermal energy is, to the extent of my knowlage, simply using hot water or steam that naturally occurs and somehow making it into usable energy. -Yuki

What is a sentence for hydrothermal?
Hydrothermal power requires a suitable hot spring.
What happens at a hydrothermal vent?
Seawater seeps into the ocean floor through cracks in the crust
When the mineral-rich water from a hydrothermal vent hits the surrounding seawater the minerals rushing out give the water the appearance of?
black smoke
How are hydrothermal vents formed?
Hydrothermal vents are formed when the earth's crust plates move apart and allow seawater to seep into the cracks. Slowly, the water will heat up as it sinks further into the earth. Minerals from the crust dissolve into the boiling water, and over time, the water will rise and spew out of the opening.
When the mineral-rich water from a hydrothermal vent hits the surrounding sea-water the minerals rushing out give the water the appearance of?
white smoke
How does hydrothermal energy work?
with magic
What is the difference between hydroelectric and hydrothermal energy?
the difference between the hydroelectric energy and the hydrothermal is hydrothermal is using geothermal heat (hot rocks) to create electricity by pumping it while the hydroelectric energy it uses the high dams and waterfall to create electricity.
How is hydrothermal energy changed to electricity?
Thanks
Organisms living near hydrothermal vents get their energy from .?

What kind of prokaryotes obtain energy from hydrothermal vents?
i
Was not a source of heat for early Earth?
hydrothermal energy
What is one reason hydrothermal energy is hardly used?

What is a energy source for hydrothermal vent?
The heat from deep in the earth's mantle.
What is geothermal energy and hydrothermal energy?
Geothermal energy is energy produced using the heat from under the earth.Hydrothermal is energy produced by using the different temperatures of water. Places in the Tropics with warm surface water but also deep cold water are most suitable.Both geothermal and hydrothermal are renewable and clean.
What was not a source of heat for early earth?
bombardmant by meteorites and asteroids.
What are the disadvantage of hydrothermal?
The word hydrothermal pertains to the action of heated water or gases within the surface of the earth. Some of its disadvantages are: accessibility, permance, power generated and energy transportation.
Is hydrothermal energy the same as hydroelectric energy?
No. Hydroelectric power is any power coming from water, usually from its movement, but also from its heat (thermal). Hydrothermal power is power generated only from the temperature of the water (hot springs, ocean thermal, geothermal).
