We produce 1.37 pounds of carbon dioxide with every kilowatt of energy consumed.
The number of kilowatts used by a device in one hour. This gives you the rate at which energy is consumed.
It is equal to 4.5 joules per second. "Watt" means how quickly energy is generated, consumed, or converted.
The Ten Percent Law refers to the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another.
The Percentage of wind energy consumed in the U.S.A is about 2%
Energy as such can NOT be destroyed - however, you can convert useful energy into unusable energy.Energy as such can NOT be destroyed - however, you can convert useful energy into unusable energy.Energy as such can NOT be destroyed - however, you can convert useful energy into unusable energy.Energy as such can NOT be destroyed - however, you can convert useful energy into unusable energy.
Is the question 'What machines create unusable energy?' All machines create unusable energy because entropy increases; 'You can't break even. '(C P Snow).
Not at all. The First Law states that energy is conserved - you can't create energy out of nothing, or make it disappear. The Second Law distinguishes usable from unusable energy, and states that the amount of unusable energy will increase over time - but the total (usable plus unusable energy) will still remain constant.Not at all.

Heat, by itself, is unusable. It is the heat difference that makes it usable.

According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, once energy is wasted, it is gone forever - useful energy has become unusable energy.According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, once energy is wasted, it is gone forever - useful energy has become unusable energy.According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, once energy is wasted, it is gone forever - useful energy has become unusable energy.According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, once energy is wasted, it is gone forever - useful energy has become unusable energy.
The difference is the unusable energy.
Usually not; some energy is usually wasted. Although energy can't really be destroyed, part of the energy is converted to an unusable form.Usually not; some energy is usually wasted.
