Why are the Iceland hot springs hot?
The hot springs in Iceland are heated by geothermal activity. Magma beneath the Earth's surface heats groundwater, which then rises to the surface as hot springs. The high concentration of volcanic activity in Iceland creates a natural source of heat for these springs.
What nonrenewable natural resource heats homes?
Natural Gas heats homes cuz its nonrenewable,and natural resource.DUH!
Why are there geysers in Iceland?
Iceland is a land form composed and created by volcanoes. Many of these volcanoes are still active. Lava from underground heats up the groundwater and provides Icelanders with geothermal power and hot water. Hope this helps :D Love, Lifeislikethat
Why is the water at geysers and some springs hot?
the heat from inside the earth heats the water so when it comes up it is hot Iceland is basically on a humongous plume of molten rock. This really hot molten rock heats the water so that's why the water is hot! :)
Why are more homes heated in Iceland?
because the steam that comes from the ground heats it up
What kind of natural disaster heats up?
heat wave
When magma heats underground water the result may be?
When magma comes in contact with underground water, it creates hot springs, or geysers.
How is natural gas formed into electricity?
You burn the natural gas that was drilled, and it heats the water and produces steam which turns the generator.
What are two natural phenomena from which geo thermal energy can be obtained?
Geothermal energy can be obtained from volcanic activity, where magma heats water reservoirs underground, or from geothermal hot springs, where naturally heated water rises to the surface. Both of these phenomena provide a renewable source of energy that can be harnessed for electricity generation and heating.
What minerals do hot springs have?
Hot springs can contain a variety of minerals such as sulfur, calcium, magnesium, sodium, and bicarbonates, among others. These minerals are typically dissolved in the water due to the geothermal activity that heats the springs. The specific mineral composition can vary depending on the location of the hot spring and the surrounding geological formations.
How does a natural gas furnace work?
Natural gas furnaces work by combining natural gas with air and lighting it. This results in a flame that heats up the air and warms the rest of the house.
What is thermal power generation?
Thermal means "relating to heat." Geothermal (Earth's heat energy) energy is tapped by pumping water down deep bore holes under pressure, the water heats up and turns to steam. When it returns to the surface the steam is used to drive generators, whcih it turn produce electricity. Iceland, which has a lot of volcanic areas and hot springs, makes considerable use of geothermal energy.
