How is nuclear energy and fusion energy different?

Nuclear energy as we use it now is from nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion is the joining up of nuclei rather than the splitting (fission), but it is not yet available on Earth.


How is the suns energy classified?

Energy sources can be classified into two types: nonrenewable and renewable. Nonrenewable resources, such as fossil fuels and nuclear material, are removed from the earth and can be depleted. These resources have been the most used type of energy in the modern era. The source of energy that does not replenish in nature is known as non-renewable source of energy. Coal, petroleum, natural gas, etc. are some of the examples of non-renewable sources of energy. (b) Exhaustible sources are those sources of energy, which will deplete and exhaust after a few hundred years. An ideal source of energy should possess the following characteristics. (a) It should be capable of giving an adequate amount of useful energy. (b) It should be convenient to transport, store and use. (c) It should be economical. It does a huge amount of work per unit mass. It is easily accessible. It is easy to store and transport. It is economical.


What 2 places on early earth could organic molecules been synthesized?

Two hypotheses about the source of organic molecules on Earth would be, first, that they formed out of the original chemical composition of the planet, because of the energy provided by solar radiation and lightning, and second, that they were already present in interstellar dust clouds and therefore were part of the original composition of the Earth when it condensed out of an interstellar dust cloud.


How are thermal pollution and global warming related?

Net heat is generated on earth by liberating energy from stored energy sources (coal, oil, gas, nuclear, etc). All heat generation warms the earth. Nordell estimates this accounts for 73% of observed warming.
