What else can I help you with?
One advantage of using fossil fuels rather than biomass?
Fossil Fuels are convenient and easy to use, they also generate a lot of Energy.By: MI
What are ten alternative energy resources rather than fossil fuels?
Solar. Wind.
What is one advantage of using nuclear power rather than fossil fuels?
One advantage of using nuclear power over fossil fuels is that nuclear power does not produce greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to mitigate climate change.
Is geothermal a fossil fuel?
No, geothermal energy is not a fossil fuel. It is considered a renewable, sustainable energy source because it utilizes heat from the Earth's core to generate electricity or heating, rather than burning fossil fuels.
What is one advantage of using wind turbines rather than burning fossil fuel to produce electricity?
One advantage is that we get energy to support our lifestyle without having to dump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is bad for the environment, you only have to look at the planet Venus with a 95% carbon dioxide atmosphere and global warming with surface temperatures of 400-500 degrees C.
What are two other benefits of using hydroelectiric rather than fossil fuels as a source of energy?
The enerrgy is cleaner and it is a renewable resource
What does fossil fuels use to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy?
This appears to be rather a confused question. Fossil fuels have chemical energy, not mechanical energy. The chemical energy is usually converted to thermal energy by burning the fuel. The thermal energy is used to generate steam which is used to drive turbines and so convert it to mechanical energy. Finally, the turbines generate electrical energy..I suppose it is possible to throw lumps of coal or shoot jets of oil at a rotor and so make it spin like a turbine. That is probably the only way in which mechanical energy can be obtained directly from fossil fuels.
Is heat a factor of a fossil fuel?
Heat is not a factor of a fossil fuel itself, but rather the result of burning fossil fuels. When fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas are combusted, they release heat energy that can be harnessed for various purposes like electricity generation or heating.
Are fossil fuels used in Britain?
Yes. When burning coal, this is a fossil fuel. Also, fossil fuels provide every day energy like heating homes and cooking food. Britain is now trying to rely on its own sources rather than other countries. Hope this helps :-)
Give an example where corrosion is an advantage rather than a disadvantage?
Aluminium oxide is an example of corrosion of advantage rather than disvantage
The La Brea Tar Pits are an example of a fossil fuel that?
The La Brea Tar Pits are not a fossil fuel, but rather a natural asphalt deposit that has preserved numerous ancient animal fossils. They are not a source of energy like fossil fuels, which are derived from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago.
Why do you use biomass rather than using fossil fuel?
Using biomass as a renewable energy source reduces greenhouse gas emissions and helps mitigate climate change. Biomass is also a sustainable option as it can be continuously replenished, unlike finite fossil fuels. Additionally, using biomass can support local economies by creating jobs in the farming and forestry industries.
