The sun.
Heat from the Earth's core which drives lithospheric plate movements, and provides a magnetosphere which allows an atmosphere to exist. english not random stuff please
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has due to its motion or movement. For instance if a car drives into a wall the energy of its movement is what destroys the wall, That energy is kinetic energy. Note: Heat is also a form of Kinetic energy because heat is the movement (vibration energy) of atoms or molecules.
Energy from the sun
Heat energy drives greenhouse effect. Huge amount of heat energy is trapped at a surface.
The energy from the Sun, solar energy drives all the process important to life on Earth.
The sun's energy. The sun does not heat all surfaces of the earth evenly the differences of temperature between the tropics, poles, land, sea cause air movement - wind
Heat escaping from Earth's core drives the mantle convection currents which move the Earth's lithospheric, tectonic plates. The heat in the Earth's core was originally a result of the gravimetric potential energy released as the Earth's materials collapsed out of the solar nebular. This heat melted the whole Earth and the various components separated into layers related to their density. All the heavy stuff - Iron, Nickel, gold and the radioactive elements went to Earth's centre. Over geologic time all this heat would have dissipated and the Earth should have cooled and completely solidified by now (there would be no plate movement as has happened on Mars). However, the quantity of radioactive elements packed into the core means that the energy from these as they decay (by fission) has kept Earth's core molten and hot (as hot as the surface of the Sun). So the forces moving the lithospheric plates are "nuclear powered". If one goes back further, the radioactive elements (all elements heavier than Iron) are made in the explosion of large stars called supernovas. So ultimately the force powering the movement of Earth's lithospheric plates is the explosion of a star. Isn't that amazing!
